NEET 2021  tiebreaker criteria is provided below

a) the one who obtains higher in Biology gets better/lower rank

b) if there is still tie then the one who has got more marks in chemistry gets better rank .

c) if there is still tie then student with less number of incorrect answers gets better rank.

Yes, there's been a small change, earlier i.e in neet 2020 , after the point (c), there was another point (d) which is provided below

d) if the tie still persists then  the one who is older in age gets better rank.
