What are the 12th marks required for JEE Mains?

Verified Answer

To appear in JEE Main 2026, there is no fixed percentage required to give the exam. But for admission into NITs, IITs, and IIITs, you must meet eligibility.

JEE Main 2026 Eligibility (12th Marks)

  • General category: 75% in Class 12 or top 20 percentile

  • SC/ST category: 65% marks

  • Subjects required: Physics, Chemistry, Maths

Also, important thing is that JEE ranks are based on percentile, not raw marks, so even small marks difference can change rank. 

Sometimes students think marks matters more but actually percentile plays big role.
