Hello,

A candidate can appear for JEE Advanced for two consecutive years from the year of passing in the qualifying examination that is 10+2 examination. For instance if you have passed in 10+2 in the year 2021, you can appear for JEE Advanced 2021 and JEE Advanced 2022 provided that you must have qualified in JEE Main 2021 and JEE Main 2022 respectively. This is applicable even if you appear for improvement examination that is if you appear for improvement examination in 2022 you can only appear for JEE Advanced 2022 and that will be your last chance. There is no minimum cut off percentage requirement to be eligible to get admission in IIT for the academic year 2021-22 due to corona. So even if you don't have 75% aggregate marks (for general category candidates) or 65% aggregate marks ( SC/ST category candidates) you will still be eligible to get admission in IIT provided you must have passed in all subjects in the qualifying examination and qualified in JEE Advanced.
