JEE Main percentile refers to a candidate’s relative performance when compared to the other candidates attempting the exam. The JEE Main percentile is calculated from the raw scores of the candidates using the normalisation process. The JEE Main normalisation process is where the authority converts the raw scores of the candidate which is 300, to a percentile score of 100. Hence, the percentile scores of different candidates are compared and a common percentile is allotted to those candidates. Candidates can also learn how to calculate their percentile to determine their ranks in the JEE Main exam.
The formula to calculate the JEE Main percentile is specified below
JEE Main percentile= (100 x No. of candidates from the session with a raw score equal to or less than T1 score) / Total No. of candidates who appeared in the session
JEE Main cutoff 2025 refers to the minimum percentile to appear for the JEE Advanced 2025 exam. The admission cutoff of JEE Main also refers to the minimum percentile that candidates need to score to participate in the JEE Main 2025 counselling. The JEE Main 2025 cutoff will be released by the authority after the results are announced.

The marks needed for a 99+ percentile in the JEE Main January attempt depend on the difficulty of the paper and the total number of candidates. Generally, you need roughly *180–200* marks out of 300 to hit the 99+ percentile. The exact cutoff varies each session, so checking the official NTA percentile score calculator or previous year cutoffs gives a more precise idea.
Hello aspirant
JEE Main accepts NIOS, so you can appear if you meet the basic eligibility.
BITS does not accept marks from two different boards, so this option won’t work for BITS.
VIT and SRM generally accept NIOS, but having two separate mark sheets can be an issue. You should check their official eligibility rules before applying.
