Dear student,

Although the cut offs haven't released yet but the expected cut off for jee mains 2021 on the basis of previous years cut off would be as follows:

  • Common Rank List (CRL) - 90- 95
  • GEN-EWS - 70- 75
  • Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 70- 75
  • Scheduled Caste (SC) - 50- 55
  • Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 40- 45
  • PwD - 1-2

Just for more information the cut off for previous year was as follows:

  • Common Rank List (CRL) - 90.3765335
  • GEN-EWS - 70.2435518
  • Other Backward Classes (OBC-NCL) - 72.8887969
  • Scheduled Caste (SC) - 50.1760245
  • Scheduled Tribe (ST) - 39.0696101
  • PwD - 0.0618524

As we can observe that your score a bit low according to general category, you need at least  90-95 percentile in jee mains to crack it. But don't worry you still have more attempts with you, you should try to score higher in them. So do apply for the other sessions.
