Factors of Cut Off Of JEE Advanced 2020

Cut off of JEE Advanced is declared based on various factors. They are as follows :

• Question Paper’s difficulty level – It is the main factor as this defines the performance of each and every candidate. So, an easy question will get you a high cut off and a difficult one can be responsible for the lower cut off.

• Previous Year Trends – It is the statistical way to get a rough estimate of the present year’s cut off. Mostly, every year the cut off is found in between a particular range with few exceptions.

• Number Of Candidates – This number decides the competition. The more the number of candidates, the more the number of seats in IITs will be the same.

• Available Seats For Admission – IITs have a lesser number of seats available for admissions. And this can have a more significant impact on cut off.

• Performance of Candidates – Candidates’ performance depends upon preparation and the question’s difficulty level. If the version deteriorates, then cut off will automatically get reduced.

Difference Between Qualifying Cut Off And Admission Cut Off?

The major difference between qualifying and admission cut-off is that the first one will help you feature in the rank list, but the later one can get you a seat in IIT. Qualifying Cut Off is declared along with the results, but the admission cut off is declared during the IITs seat allotment process by JoSAA ( Joint Seat Allocation Authority).
