The Joint Entrance Examination (or JEE) is a competitive engineering examination held in India for admission to the top engineering institutions. It is a combination of two separate levels: the JEE (Main) and the JEE (Advanced).
JEE Main is both a qualifying exam for getting admission to some colleges and a screening exam that determines who will be eligible for JEE Advanced, which is the decisive exam for selecting students for admission to IITs and NITs.
The first thing that every candidate considers following the examination is the results of the JEE Main cutoff. The minimum score needed to be eligible for the JEE Advanced 2022 is the JEE Main Cutoff 2023. The JEE Main cutoff is announced shortly after the JEE Main exam ends and released by the official body, National Testing Agency (NTA).
Let’s get to the various JEE Main cutoff aspects and trends.
Here is the JEE Main Cutoff for the year 2023 for your reference.
