Hello there,

Here are the JEE Mains and Advanced Scoring & Ranking Systems:

JEE Mains

  • Total marks: 300 (Physics, Chemistry, Maths).
  • +4 for correct, -1 for incorrect answers.
  • Percentile scores are used for ranking due to multiple sessions.
  • Best score is considered if attempted multiple times.

    JEE Advanced

  • Two papers, both mandatory.
  • Varying total marks and marking schemes.
  • Final ranks depend on combined scores from both papers.

Difference :
JEE Mains is for NITs/IIITs, and qualification for JEE Advanced; Advanced is for IIT admissions.

A student's JEE Mains rank is determined by their total score in the exam, with higher marks resulting in a lower rank; the National Testing Agency (NTA) releases a Common Rank List (CRL) where students are ranked based on their marks, allowing them to access various engineering colleges based on their rank and chosen category (General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.).

JEE Mains rank analysis

  • Calculation:

The rank is calculated based on the percentile score achieved in the exam, considering the difficulty level of each shift and the overall performance of all candidates.

  • Accessing the rank:

Students can access their JEE Mains rank by logging into the NTA website using their application number and date of birth.

  • Category-wise ranking:

The rank list is generated separately for different categories, allowing students to compete within their respective reserved categories.

Example of JEE Mains rank distribution:

  1. High score (250+) : Rank within the top few thousand
  2. Moderate score (200-220): Rank within the top 10,000 to 50,000
  3. Lower score (150-180): Rank beyond 50,000
