JEE Main 2020 January 7 Official Question Paper with Answer Key

Hello Aspirant,

With an All India Rank (AIR) of 145214 and OBC-NCL rank of 48284 with Uttarakhand domicile you have chances of getting admission in College of Technology Pantnagar (COT Pantnagar) through UTU counselling. However this will depend on cut-off trends, seat availability and your branch of choice.

Note that COT Pantnagar fills B.Tech seats through UKSEE/UTU counselling and based on JEE Main scores. Being a Uttarakhand domicile and OBC-NCL category should help you with state quota reservations. If you wish to improve your chances:

1. Apply through UTU counselling.
2. Look for branches that have relatively low cut-offs.
3. Keep under similar colleges in UTU also as backups.

Hello aspirant,
The full form of JEE Mains is Joint Entrance Examination Main, and for JEE Advanced, it is Joint Entrance Examination Advanced. These are national-level engineering entrance exams conducted for admission into top institutes like NITs, IIITs (via JEE Main) and the IITs (via JEE Advanced). JEE Main is the qualifying exam to appear for JEE Advanced.

Dear Candidate ,
JEE Main : Joint Entrance Examination - Main . ( Conducted by NTA ( National test agency ) .
JEE Advanced: Joint Entrance Examination - Advanced . ( Conducted by IITs on a rotational basis )

For appearing in JEE Main, there is no minimum percentage requirement in your 12th class marks. However, for admission to IITs, NITs, IIITs, and CFTIs, you will need at least 75% marks (or be in the top 20 percentile) in your 12th class exams. If you are from a reserved category (SC/ST/PwD), the minimum is 65%.

In simpler terms:

To take the JEE Main exam: You can appear regardless of your 12th-grade percentage.

To get into an IIT, NIT, IIIT, or CFTI: You need to meet the 75% or top 20 percentile requirement in your 12th class.

For JEE Advanced (to get into IITs): You need 75% marks (or be in the top 20 percentile) in 12th. Reserved categories need 65%.

Your 12th marks don't affect your JEE Main rank .

Therefore, you can share your 12th marks, but they won't determine your eligibility for JEE Main itself, only for admissions to certain institutions based on JEE Main scores.

Hello Aspirant,

Yes, diploma holders are eligible to appear for JEE Main, even if you passed out in 2020—but with specific conditions:

• A diploma of at least 3 years (approved by AICTE or state technical board) is considered equivalent to Class 12 for the purpose of appearing in JEE Main.

• However, diploma holders are not eligible for admission to NITs, IIITs, or GFTIs through JEE Main rank.

• You can appear in JEE Advanced, and if you qualify, you are eligible for admission into IITs.

• You must have studied Physics and Mathematics in your diploma or prior education to be eligible.

So yes, if your diploma had PCM subjects, and you meet the age and number of attempts criteria, you are eligible for JEE Main and can pursue admission to IITs through JEE Advanced.

All the best for your career.
