Has anyone made it to the JEE Advanced extended merit list after not clearing the previous cutoff?

My friend missed the cutoff by just 6 marks. She scored 120 marks and her JEE rank was a decent 4582.

She knew that even if she managed to qualify which was difficult, she would not be given the opportunity to opt for a stream of her choice. However, she suffered a setback when she wasn’t even able to qualify for the cutoff. She lost all hope. After a few days, she was notified that the updated l JEE Advance rank list has been released. On checking the portal she was giddy to see that she had qualified! 

She knew the rank would offer her almost nothing but the mere fact that she had qualified for one of the most difficult exams in India motivated her a lot.
