State wise category rank will differ?
Hello,
Yes, state-wise category rank can differ because it is calculated based on the number of candidates within the same category (such as General, SC, ST, OBC, etc.) in that specific state.
Different states have varying numbers of applicants in each category, leading to fluctuations in competition levels.
For example, a candidate from a reserved category might have a higher rank in a state with fewer candidates in the same category, compared to states with more competition. This localized ranking system helps allocate seats under state quotas for educational institutions or government jobs.
Hope it helps !
