According to the new format adopted by the IIT Council, it is a two-tier system that is mains and an advanced test. Students who clear the advanced test after being screened in the mains would be considered for admission to the IITs, provided they are among the top 20 percentile in their respective boards. In 2014, the cut-off mark of the JEE Main Paper 1 for the admission in undergraduate courses like BE and B Tech is 115 in the Common Merit List (general) category.
