could you please tell me, how much marks needed for 4000 rank in wbjee exam ?????
Hello,
The rank is allocated based on various factors like total number of candidates appeared, top score in the exam, normalized marks etc. As these factors determine the rank it is quite difficult to exact score because the marks vs rank trend keeps changing every year depending on the above mentioned factors. Based on the WBJEE 2020 marks vs expected rank data you need to score minimum 130-145 marks or above to obtain a rank around 4000. The actual rank may vary with the estimated score.

I have 3 years gap between my 10thand 11th. I passed 10th in 2018 and will pass 12th in 2023. will it affect my chance during counseling in jadhavpur university after qualifying wbjee?
Hi
No, there will be no problem because of GAP years between your class 10th and 11th . What all matters is your 12th qualifications.
As per the eligibility criteria of Jadavpur University to be eligible for B tech
-
You must have passed 10+2 / equivalent with Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry as compulsory subjects with a minimum of 60% marks or 45% aggregate marks in case if you are from reserved category
-
You must have passed each subject separately ( including both theory and practical). You must have also got atleast 30% marks in English.
So, you don't need to worry about gap years at all just focus on your class 11th and 12th and your wbjee preparation and if you meet above eligibility criteria with your class 12th then you will be eligible and can definitely get admission in Jadavpur University on the basis of rank of obtained by you in your wbjee
