Advanced Eligibility Criteria 2023 - Marks Required in 12th Standard/
Qualifying Exam
For
admissions into IITs, the candidates will be required to meet the following
eligibility criteria of JEE Advanced 2023:
- Candidates must have cleared the
12th standard (or equivalent) examination with 75% percent marks and for
SC/ST candidates the required mark is 65%.
- The candidates should be within
the top 20 category percentile of the qualifying examination.
- While calculating aggregate marks,
the candidates should take into account scores of Physics, Chemistry,
Mathematics, Language, and any one other subject.
Process
of Total Marks Calculation for 12th (or equivalent) Examination
- If the marks given in a subject is
not out of 100, then the marks will be scaled (up or down) to 100 so that
the total aggregate marks becomes out of 500.
- If a Board awards only letter
grades without providing an equivalent percentage of marks on the grade
sheet, then the candidate will have to obtain a certificate from the Board
specifying the equivalent marks and submit it at the time of acceptance of
the allocated seat. If the candidate fails to provide the certificate,
then the final decision will be taken by the Joint Implementation
Committee.
- In case any of the subjects
Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Language are not evaluated in the
final year, then the marks for the same subject from the previous year/s
will be used for calculating the percentage of aggregate marks.
- Candidates who appeared in the
12th standard (or equivalent) board examination for the first time in 2022
and reappeared in all subjects in 2023 will have to note that the best of
the two performances will be considered.
- If a Board gives aggregate marks
considering both 11th and 12th standard examinations, then only 12th
standard marks will be considered. If a Board gives aggregate marks
considering the results of all three years of a 3 year diploma or courses
of equivalent duration, then only the marks scored in the final year will
be considered. Similarly, for Boards which follows a semester system, the
marks scored in the final two semesters will be considered.
- If a Board does not release marks
scored in individual subjects but gives only the aggregate marks, then the
aggregate marks given by the Board will be considered.
