JEE Main Scores

Hello Riyaz,
Most of the aspirants are in the dilemma, whether they will get a seat or not. How much paper they should attempt? How to judge whether the paper is tough or not and so many other similar questions. What I have been telling all my students is a simple mantra. Think as if you have to attempt any one of the two consecutive questions. That means you need to attempt around 50% of the paper. Even if you can get around 40 % overall marks you should be able to score around 2500 rank which is a very decent rank for someone who is not sure whether he will get a seat or not. Therefore, just try to attempt 50%, stay calm, give your best and you will surely get a decent rank in JEE Advanced. Firstly, I would tell you about the JEE Advanced because it creates the main difference. For general category, around 50 % marks will get you some decent branch. If you want to take CSE in old IITs then you should score around 70% marks.
