Here are 9 important points that candidates should know about the JEE Advanced 2021 AAT exam.
#1. Candidates who wish to join the B. Arch programme must pass AAT 2021 exam to be eligible for admission. However, it must be noted that the B. Arch programme is available at IIT (BHU) Varanasi, IIT Kharagpur and IIT Roorkee only. The test was conducted for only those candidates who had qualified for JEE Advanced 2021.
#2. The cut-off marks for passing AAT 2021 will be decided by the Joint Implementation Committee of JEE Advanced 2021. As and when the results are released tomorrow, candidates can check the same from jeeadv.ac.in. Only those candidates who will secure marks above the decided cut-off will be declared pass in AAT 2021.
#3. There will be no separate ranking in the test. There will also be no separate cut-offs for students belonging to any category.
#4. Furthermore, the allotment of seats will be based on the category-wise All India Rank in the JEE Advanced 2021 exam. The B. Arch program will only be offered to those candidates who will be declared pass in AAT 2021.
#5. The counselling process for JEE Advanced AAT 2021 will be carried out by the Joint Seat Allocation Authority or JoSAA. Candidates have to complete their registration and choice filling process via josaa.nic.in.
