JEE Advanced: What did the toppers score in past 10 years

JEE Advanced 2023: While IITs conduct the JEE Advanced for the top 2.5 lakh JEE Main qualified candidates, the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) does the counselling for admission to the IITs.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of candidates appear for the JEE Advanced exam and only a select few make it to the list. The entrance test shortlists candidates for admission to the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT). The top 2.5 lakh JEE Main qualified candidates become eligible to register for the IIT entrance test.

While IITs conduct the JEE Advanced, the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) does the counselling. Every year, as many as six rounds of JoSAA counselling are conducted for admission to the IITs after the JEE Advanced results are declared.
