Analysis of JEE Main Cutoff Trends
As per the cutoff trends of the previously held JEE Main, a steady decrease in the qualifying cutoff can be seen. Many factors may be responsible for the rise in the minimum marks which have to be secured to qualify for JEE Advanced examination. For the session of 2019, NTA released the minimum NTA score cutoff to be secured for JEE Advanced. The cutoff was comparatively lower than the previous year mainly due to the fact that the exam was conducted twice by the authorities.
The following points may be the factor for the change of JEE Main cutoff trends:
-
The entrance examination is getting tougher every year.
-
Since the number of candidates for JEE Advanced has been increased, this might have reflected in the decrease of the qualifying cutoff.
-
Decrease in the performance level of the candidates.
