Education, New Delhi; Council for Indian School Certificate
Examination, New Delhi; etc.

Minimum Percentage of Marks in QE
Candidates belonging to GE, OBC and DS categories must secure at least
60% marks in aggregate in their QE. Whereas, those belonging to SC, ST
and PD categories must secure at least 55% marks in aggregate in the QE.
The percentage of marks awarded by the Board will be treated as final.
If the Board does not award the percentage of marks, it will be
calculated based on the marks obtained in all subjects listed in the
mark sheet. If any Board awards only letter grades without providing an
equivalent percentage of marks on the grade sheet, the candidate should
obtain a certificate from the Board specifying the equivalent marks,
and submit it at the time of counselling/ admission. In case such a
certificate is not provided then the final decision rests with the
Joint Implementation Committee of JEE-2010.
4. Important Points to note
(i) One can attempt JEE only twice, in consecutive years. That means
one should have attempted JEE for the first time in 2009 or will be
appearing in 2010.
(ii) Those who have accepted admission after qualifying in JEE in
earlier years by paying full fees at any of the IITs, IT-BHU, Varanasi
or ISM, Dhanbad, are NOT ELIGIBLE to write JEE at all irrespective of
whether or not they joined in any of the programmes.
(iii) The year of passing the Qualifying Examination is the year in
which the candidate has passed, for the first time, any of the
examinations listed above, irrespective of the minimum percentage marks
secured.
(iv) The offer of admission is subject to verification of original
certificates/ documents at the time of admission. If any candidate is
found ineligible at a later date even after admission to an Institute,
his/ her admission will be cancelled automatically.
(iv) If a candidate is expecting the results of the QE in 2010, his/her
admission will only be provisional until he/she submits the relevant
documents. The admission stands cancelled if the documents are not
submitted in original to the concerned institute before September
30,2010.
(v) If a candidate has passed any of the examinations, listed in
Sub-section III.2, before October 1,2008, he/she is not eligible to
appear in JEE-2010.
(vi) If a Board invariably declares the results of the QE late (only
after September 30, every year), the candidate is advised to attempt
JEE in 2011 or later.
(vii) The decision of the Joint Admission Board of JEE-201 0 regarding
the eligibility of any applicant shall be final.
so in short you can give IIT-JEE only twice one when you are in 12th and one after that(even that in consecutive years)
