I have got total 203 marks in March 2021 attempt but still my percentile is 71.2 , can you explain why it is??? maths marks - 64.2 chemistry - 68.5 physics - 70. 8
Hi,
JEE Mains rank is based on percentile not marks. Percentile depends on various factors like Paper difficulty, No. Of students appearing in particular slot, How students performed in that slot, etc. The most obvious reason could be that your exam slot paper was easy when compared with other student of the same slot. Because so many people got higher marks than you, your percentile is lower than what you had expected.
Thanks!!!
Hello Aspirant,
See very first thing, it is impossible to have 71.2 percentile on 203 marks, so you must have calculated wrong marks using the answer key.
Now If we go through the analysis of marks Vs Percentile Vs rank for JEE-Main 2020 then according to the percentile mentioned by you in the question your rank is expected to be in the range of 294624 - 331200 .
