If so, then this news is for you. The pre-pandemic Class 12 performance criteria for admissions will once again be used by Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) starting with the upcoming session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In light of the coronavirus pandemic&#8217;s unpredictability, the IITs relaxed the requirements for applicants&#8217; performance in board exams in 2020. The shutdown forced a number of national and state boards to cancel their Class 12 school-leaving exams and substitute other evaluation methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to sources, the IITs have decided to end the relaxation of entrance requirements based on performance on the Class 12 board exam as a result of the restoration of academic normalcy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prior to the pandemic, in order to be guaranteed a seat at an IIT, general category applicants with a qualifying JEE (Advanced) rank had to either have a Class 12 grade of at least 75% or place in the top 20 percentile of their class 12 results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During a meeting last month, the Joint Admission Board (JAB) voted to reinstate the pre-pandemic Class 12 requirement. All decisions regarding how the JEE will be conducted are made by the JAB (Advanced). An official announcement will likely to be announced soon.<\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you getting ready for JEE exams?
