All the candidates, including foreign nationals, must fulfill each and every one of the following five criteria to appear in JEE (Advanced). Criterion 1 – Performance in JEE (Main) 2017 One should be among the top 2,20,000 (including all categories) by scoring positive marks in Paper-1 of JEE (Main) 2017. The percentages of various categories are: 27% for OBC-NCL, 15% for SC, 7.5% for ST and the remaining 50.5% is OPEN for all. Within each of these four categories, 3% horizontal reservation is available for PwD (including Dyslexic) candidates. Criterion 2 – Age limit One should have been born on or after October 1, 1992. Five years relaxation is given to SC, ST and PwD candidates, i.e., these candidates should have been born on or after October 1, 1987. Criterion 3 – Number of attempts One can attempt JEE (Advanced) a maximum of two times in consecutive years. Therefore, one who appeared in JEE (Advanced) 2016 for the first time is also eligible.
