Hello Bhanuprakash,



Thanks for contacting Careers360.



Since the exam was conducted in various shifts, the raw marks have been converted into percentile scores using the normalization process released by NTA.

Dear Student,

Greetings.

The Jee Mains 2019 results are considered as percentile scored. It obtained after transforming the scores into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees. Percentile Score shows the percentage of candidates who have scored equal to or below a particular percentile in an exam. It is the normalized score and not the raw scores. After normalization, each topper of a session will get the same percentile of 100 which is the desirable one. Also the marks between the lowest and highest scores are also converted to the respective percentiles.
