Normalization Process and Percentile Scores:
It’s crucial for candidates to understand that the NTA follows a normalization process to ensure fairness across the different shifts in which the JEE Main examination is conducted. This process converts the raw marks obtained by candidates into NTA percentile scores. The percentile score indicates the percentage of candidates who have scored equal to or below a particular percentile.
Tie-Breaking Criteria:
In cases where two or more candidates secure the same NTA score, the NTA employs a tie-breaking policy to determine their ranks. The tie is resolved based on the following order of preference:
- Higher NTA score in Mathematics.
- Higher NTA score in Physics.
- Higher NTA score in Chemistry.
- Candidate with a less proportion of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in all the subjects.
- Candidate with a less proportion of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Mathematics.
- Candidate with a less proportion of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Physics.
- Candidate with a less proportion of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Chemistry.
- Older candidate in age.
- Same rank will be assigned if the tie still persists.
What After the JEE Main Session 2 Results?
The JEE Main 2025 Session 2 results will determine the eligibility of candidates for the JEE Advanced 2025 examination, which is the gateway to the prestigious Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs). Candidates who secure the required cut-off in JEE Main will be eligible to register for JEE Advanced.
Additionally, the scores obtained in JEE Main are also used for admissions to National Institutes of Technology (NITs), Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIITs), and other Government-Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIs). The Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) will conduct a centralized counselling process for admissions to these institutes based on the JEE Main All India Rank (AIR).
Expected Cut-off Trends:
While the official cut-offs will be released along with the results, experts anticipate a slight increase in the qualifying cut-offs for JEE Advanced this year, potentially due to higher participation. Last year, the general category cut-off for JEE Advanced was 93.23 percentile.
