Yes of course.
Many students who have scored good percentile above 97 in jee main and still not received admission through jee main just because they are General.
This is sad part of your system but focus on your studies and get good Rank in midst of all these inequalities. Surely the other castes are going to get good college inspite of not scoring as good as some General category student.

Hello Siddhant thanks for approaching Career 360 

your question is quiet know for everyone 

ofcourse it plays vital role for students other than general category students

Hello,
Obviously yes!!
It affects the jee mains cutoff as well as the cutoff of colleges like NITs,IIITs that takes admission through jee mains.Mostly it harms the chances of general category students in getting admission into colleges.
But it can not be changed so try to prepare hard for jee mains 2018 and if you want yop colleges then try to score 200+ marks in jee mains.
Good luck.
