JEE Advanced 2025 Marks vs Rank – Previous Year Reference

The JEE Advanced 2025 qualifying cutoff for General category was approximately 94–100 marks out of 360 (aggregate) with a minimum of around 10–12 marks per subject. Note: qualifying cutoff (getting a rank) is different from the marks needed for IIT admission — you need a much higher score to actually get into a good IIT branch.

IIT Bombay CSE had a closing rank of approximately AIR 67 in 2025 for General category. Based on the marks vs rank correlation, this corresponds to approximately 290–310 marks out of 360. For OBC-NCL, the closing rank was around 200, requiring approximately 270–285 marks.

An AIR of 1000 in JEE Advanced 2025 corresponds to approximately 248–265 marks out of 360. The exact marks for a given rank vary based on the exam difficulty that year and the performance distribution of all qualified candidates.

JEE Advanced 2025 had a total of 360 marks — Paper 1 contributed 180 marks and Paper 2 contributed 180 marks. Unlike JEE Main, JEE Advanced marks are absolute (not normalized). The marking scheme varies by question type (MCQ, single-correct, multiple-correct, paragraph-based, matching, numerical).

No. JEE Advanced marks are NOT normalized. There is a single paper (two parts: Paper 1 and Paper 2) conducted on the same day. All candidates write the same question papers, so normalization across shifts is not required. Your raw marks are your actual marks — this makes the scoring more transparent than JEE Main.
