You are already above the average range if your score in JEE Main 2026 is 140 marks. As per predictions by Mahima Gupta - "140 marks in JEE Mains 2026 means a percentile score of 95.8-98.5, which treanslates to a rank of around 61,750-22,500. At this score, you definitely have a better chance to study at respectable engineering colleges, including some of the newer/ lesser NITs, like NIT Srinagar, NIT Puducherry, NIT Mizoram and others." But, since the introduction of percentiles in JEE exams, scoring above a required point is mandatory, as AIR will correspond to that mark only.

With the increase in the level of competition, limited number of seats in the top notch colleges and high cutoff range for streams like agriculture, pharmacy and engineering, students from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh face humongous pressure to secure a correct path for higher education. In the competitive landscape, the EAMCET exam has become a lifeline, a true guiding force for students from these two states to secure a seat in renowned colleges. Unlike the major national level engineering and medical exams like JEE Mains, JEE Advanced, NEET, the EAMCET exams give a fair and region based platform for every test taker to secure their future through professional education. Moreover, admission based on this exam not only imparts quality education but at the same time ensures that the educational costs are affordable, transparent in nature and merit based.
