JEE Main OBC Category Cutoff Trends

JEE Main OBC Category Cutoff Trends: In January, many candidates registered and took the JEE Main exam, with the highest number coming from the OBC (Other Backward Classes) category. This increase suggests that the cutoff for the upcoming JEE Advanced 2025 may rise to above 80 percentile for OBC candidates. Looking at trends from previous years, we can expect the 2024 cutoff to continue this upward trend, similar to the 6% increase seen in 2023. In that year, the cutoff rose by 6 percentiles, reflecting a positive change compared to the lowest cutoff in 2022. In 2021, the cutoff dropped by 4 percentiles from the previous year, while 2020 had a slight rise of 2 percentiles over 2019.

Overall, these trends suggest an increase in the cutoff for OBC candidates in the JEE Main 2025. The exam is conducted in multiple shifts and sessions, necessitating a normalization process to adjust for differences in difficulty levels among various question sets. This normalization can greatly influence the cutoff for JEE Advanced 2025.
