The total score will be an estimated raw score. It may change if any answer in the answer key is dropped or changed in the final answer key.

Meanwhile, the JEE Advanced registration will begin on August 7. This means, the result for JEE Main can be expected by August 6. Those who secure ranks in the top 2.5 lakh will be eligible to apply for JEE Advanced – the entrance exam for the IITs.
