No, your age will not affect your rank it doesn't matter even if you are 20 year old or whatever your age is.
This is because,
Now, the age of actor has been removed by NTA
.Earlier for tie breaking situation when two students used to get same marks then the one older in age use to get the better rank but now this age factor has been dissolved so if two students now get the same number then they would get the same rank.
