If you are getting admission in NITs, it's good because private institutions are always the last options. And one more thing: No institution can give you 100% guarantee for you placement. Because, it depends on you- how much are you smart, talented, your SGPA and CGPA score during graduation
All the best.

Hello Yash,
It's normal practice in any MCQ type of paper to have negative marking. This is to prevent students from randomly marking answers even if they are not knowing ABC of it. It has been observed that many students have a tendency to mark answers whenever no negative marking is prescribed with the hope of getting few marks simply by stroke of luck. Here in JEE Mains, authorities have therefore decided to have negative marking @1 mark per wrong answer which is quite liberal and not stiff. However, knowing this, I suggest you must attempt to answers all questions first where you feel that you have found correct answer. After this

Hello Siddharth,
Its good to know the confidence in oneself that you are showing. With marks that you are expecting, there are large number colleges viz different NITs, IIITs etc. All such colleges that are going to admit students based on JEE Mains rank are mentioned on 'JEE-Mains' website. Just browse through and you will have enough knowledge.
Best wishes.

You didn't mentioned private or government.
Incase for private you should have 100+ or even 90+.
For government,120 will take you to top NIT's and will also qualify you for JEE Advanced.
If you are SC reserved,85 is fine to get into NIT's ,same for ST reserved too.

Hello Abhinav,
In the information brochure which is officially released, it does not reveal anything about the number of questions that you will have to answer. It only says that all three parts will have equal weight-age. Each correct question will earn four marks. Each wrong question will fetch one negative mark and unanswered question will fetch no marks. But, going by last year's data, you will need to answer 90 questions. You can calculate yourself how many maximum marks you can score if you do not attempt certain questions.

Hi Pooja,
SAT and JEE are entirely different hence comparing them will make little sense. JEE tests a different skill set while SAT is entirely different. To do well in SAT, you must be extremely well in English and the level of mathematics is a little easier as compared to JEE for obvious reasons. That said, a very good SAT score can land you up in a top university in the world.

Hello Siddharth,
You definitely need to score 75 percent or more in your 12th. This only will make you eligible to get admission in NIT. You of course need to study for JEE Mains. Good AIR only will enable you to get a in NIT. Still, there's sometime left. Utilise it in overcoming weak areas that I am sure you must have found out by now.
Best wishes.

Hello Mitrank,
The last yea's cut off was placed between 45 to 100 depending on the category. The cutoff was declared in the month of April last year. We can expect something different this year since marks obtained in class 12th will not be counted. Be that as it may, I will advise you to aim for much more than thus since what happens in the exam is totally unpredictable. Additionally, the pattern of marks could be different since a score of only JEE Mains is going to be considered. Don't worry. appear for the exam with tension free attitude and you are bound to score better.

Hello,
Apart from IIT-JEE Mains and Advanced, I would also suggest you to appear for individual state examinations (OJEE in Odisha, EAMCET in Andhra Pradesh/ Telangana, COMEDK in Karnataka, etc.). These exams also guarantee you good colleges and serve as a backup in case things don't end up the way you've planned for IIT-JEE
Every state has its own share of good engineering colleges. So, don't underestimate or overlook them. They can prove to be vital. The more the entrance examinations you appear for, the more the options you will have for choosing colleges.
Certain private colleges like SRM, KIIT - Odisha, GITAM - Vishakhapatnam and ITE
