5.0JEE Main 2026 Result - How is Percentile Score Calculated?
The percentile score of a candidate is determined by calculating the percentage of candidates who scored equal to or below them in a given examination session. To compute this, one multiplies 100 by the ratio of the number of candidates with scores less than or equal to the candidate in question to the total number of candidates who participated in that session.
Understanding NTA JEE Main 2026 Percentile Score
The NTA JEE Main percentile indicates a candidate's relative performance compared to others, representing the percentage of candidates with lower scores.
Attaining the 100th percentile does not necessitate a perfect 100% score; it simply means having a higher score than all other candidates.
In this scenario, the candidate who secures the top position attains the 100th percentile since every other participant achieves a lower score than them.
6.0JEE Main Result - How Merit/Rank list is Prepared?
Ranks will be released once both the sessions of JEE Main are completed. For the candidates who sit for both sessions, the rank will be decided on the basis of the best of the scores obtained in the two sessions. The percentiles of both sessions will be calculated to the 7th decimal for all the students. It is done to avoid the tie of scores. For the candidates who sit for only one session, the rank will be decided based on their performances in that session.
7.0Tie-Breaking Procedures in JEE Main Result
- Initial tie-breaker compares scores in Mathematics. Higher score receives a superior rank.
- If Mathematics scores are identical, Physics scores are compared. A higher Physics score results in a better rank.
- In the case of matching Physics scores, Chemistry scores are evaluated. Higher Chemistry score leads to a higher rank.
- If Chemistry scores are also equal, the ratio of negative to positive responses is considered. A lower ratio merits a superior rank.
- As a final step, if all previous criteria fail, age becomes the deciding factor. The older candidate is awarded a better rank.
