All the students who score less than the cut-off rank will not be eligible for admission in any of the participating colleges and moreover also not qualify for JEE Advanced.

It has been observed on the basis of previous year records that cut off marks is decreasing with considerable amount every year. This may be due to increase in difficulty of question paper or due to change in exam pattern or may be due to any other factor. But the candidates should not think that cut off of next year will also decrease surely. There are many factors affecting cut off as discussed above. So the aspirants should work hard. Forgetting about cut off the students should give their best and surely they will achieve their goal.
