The rank of the students is decided on the basis of the scores that they have got in the exam and the last rank that is there on the list is considered as cut-off rank. All the students who score less than the cut-off rank will not be eligible for admission in any of the participating colleges. All India Ranks are declared using the pre-decided formula, where 60% of score is calculated on the basis of student’s JEE scores and 40% weightage is given to their normal scores in 12th Board exams.

Students can refer to the cut-off scores for JEE Main exams 2019 to calculate which college and branch they can expect to get enrolled in. The cut-off scores for this year’s JEE Main can be expected on the basis of JEE Main 2018 exams results. Students will be able to download Score Card or Rank Card after declaration of the AIR of students. Different lists will be declared for Category-wise Cutoff for JEE Main 2019.

Institute-Level Cutoff List

Besides the cutoff list of JEE Main exam, all the institutes also release cutoff lists for admission to their various courses open for JEE aspirants. Engineering colleges decide their JEE Main 2018 Opening and Closing Rank and their cutoff scores on the basis of:


	

	
Number of applicants they have for different courses,
	
	

	
Number of seats they have in different courses.
	


College-level cutoff lists are declared for each round of admission conducted to fill up the vacant seats. Hence, students have to qualify JEE Main first by scoring more than the declared cutoffs and then, should score more than the declared cutoffs for engineering colleges they are targeting and their courses to get admission.
