The JEE Advanced is one of the toughest national level engineering exams in the country. The exam is also considered as the gateway to the IIT’s, which are the most prestigious engineering institutes of India. The JEE Advanced 2020 would be conducted after the JEE Mains 2020 results are declared, as the candidates who will qualify for the JEE Mains 2020 examinations, among them only the first 2,45,000 will be allowed to attend the JEE advanced examinations.

The JEE Advanced results and the cut-off for 2020 will be declared by the NTA as it is done by the examination conducting body every year. This cut-off mark will determine as good marks which will help the candidates to attain admissions in the undergraduate engineering programs in the top engineering institutes of the country.
Factors which will affect the JEE Advanced results in 2020 cut-off marks
The JEE advanced results 2020 cut-off will also depend on various factors which are given below:
- The total number of candidates who have applied for the JEE Advanced 2020 examinations.
