Mohammed Younus/ Hyderabad : Several students may lose their seats in IITs under the top 20 percentile rule which is higher for Andhra Pradesh and Telangana as compared to other States. With cut-off marks being the highest across the country in both States, several students may have to lose seats despite securing the best ranks in JEE Advanced, as they do not fulfil the criteria decided by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
The marks secured in JEE Advanced in addition to the top 20 percentile ranking will be considered for admissions. If a student with a good rank in Advanced does not find his place in top 20 percentile in the Intermediate board examination marks will lose the seat.As the top 20 percentile for the state of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana is 92 per cent, the highest among all the states, more students will be filtered out of the counseling process. The CBSE recently released the top 20 percentile for all states on the basis of list of marks sent by respective state boards for Intermediate education.
Accordingly, the list of top 20 percentile for the students of AP and Telangana was decided considering both Intermediate first and second year marks. Out of 1,000 marks, the cut-off for general category is 92 per cent, for OBC 86 per cent, for SC students it is 81 and for ST 80 per cent. The cut off for Assam general students it is 58, for Bihar it is 60, for Chhattisgarh it is 65 and for Himachal Pradesh it is 72.37 per cent. With such a disparity among the cut off marks, the percentile would vary from State to State.
The top 20 percentile of AP and Telangana will be high compared to other States and a student from Assam can get into the IIT, though he or she may have less marks and may have got a lower rank. A student from Mahabubnagar M Rama Krishna, who secured 1,500 rank in JEE Advance, said that his dream may be shattered because of the top 20 percentile rule. He said that this system had made JEE Advanced ranks useless. An educationist and an IIT trainer Kasu Pavan Kumar said that deciding the cut-off marks on the basis of respective boards of state was creating the issue of top 20 percentile. He said that for CBSE students, the cut off was 83.2. If the same is applied to all the boards, it may have benefited everyone, he opined.

The ranks, which were supposed to be declared by June 30, were delayed as the boards did not furnish Class XII results.
