📋 JEE Main 2026 Official Cutoff — JEE Advanced Qualifying Percentile

NTA released official category-wise cutoff with Session 2 result on April 20, 2026. This cutoff determines JEE Advanced 2026 eligibility only — not NIT/IIIT admission.

SLIDE — Same institute లో higher preference branch కి upgrade రావడం కోసం. Institute change రాదు, branch upgrade only.

🏆 AP/TS JEE 2026 Achievers
Pasala Mohith — AP (100 percentile) ⭐
Thunga Durga Suprabhath — AP (100 percentile) ⭐
AP emerged as "JEE powerhouse" this year with multiple 100 percentile scorers.
AP students consistently perform well in JEE since 2022.
🏛️ NIT AP (Near Amaravati)

HS quota (AP domicile): ~80,000-1,20,000

🏛️ NIT Warangal (TS Students)

CSE HS (TS domicile) closing: ~5,000-6,000
CSE OS closing: ~3,000-4,000
ECE, EE, Mech also strong
TS students: big advantage in HS quota!
🎯 AP/TS Dual Strategy
JoSAA + AP EAMCET simultaneously
AP EAMCET exam: May 12-20, 2026
AP EAMCET counselling: July 2026
Keep EAMCET as backup always
Top AP colleges: KLU, Vignan, GITAM, GVPCE
Don't skip EAMCET even if JEE rank is good!
📌 Important for AP/TS students: State counselling (AP/TS EAMCET) and JoSAA counselling are separate and simultaneous. You can participate in both. However, you cannot hold seats in both — accepting a JoSAA seat means you must withdraw from state counselling, and vice versa. Keep EAMCET prepared regardless of JEE rank as a backup strategy.
