Alongside individual scores, the category-wise cut-offs have been released, helping candidates assess their chances of progressing to JEE Advanced or securing admission through JoSAA. The final answer key, now live, ensures transparency and fairness in score calculation, as it includes only verified corrections following the objection window.

Candidates who have qualified for JEE Advanced can now begin registration and preparation for the next phase. Those not moving forward to Advanced will participate in the JoSAA counselling process, expected to commence in June 2025. This result represents a crucial academic juncture for lakhs of aspirants, opening pathways to some of the most prestigious engineering institutions in the country.
