What is JEE Main Cut-off?

CBSE considers a variety of factors before announcing a cut-off every year. This refers to the minimum score that will be required to be eligible to seek admission in any of the participating colleges. CBSE considers factors like the number of students appearing in JEE Main, the difficulty level of the exam, the number of seats available for allocation, cut-offs for previous years, etc. Based on the scores of students in paper 1 and 2, the cut-off is declared. For all students who do well in JEE Main result and score higher than the cut-off, the limited number of seats available in top engineering colleges wait for occupation.
