Important Points to remember for JEE Main 2021 result (February/March/April and May)

  • This year the NTA is conducting JEE Main 2021 in multiple sessions, therefore results for each session will be declared after each session
  • The final result of JEE Main result 2021 will be declared after the announcement of May session result
  • The result will also contain the best out of four JEE Main 2021 scores, All India rank in JEE Main 2021, candidate’s category (if reserved category applies) and JEE Advanced 2021 cutoff

How to calculate JEE Main 2021 Result/Rank?

JEE Main 2021 result will be determined through the process of normalization. The exam will be held on different days and sessions, thus, some candidates may get an easy paper while others have to answer tougher questions in JEE Main 2021 exam paper. To make sure that no aspirant benefits or is at a disadvantage due to this, the process of normalisation will be adopted to determine JEE Main results and ranks. NTA will rank students on the basis of the percentile score obtained in the exam. This percentile score will be calculated as per a pre-determined formula.

What is the Percentile Score?

The percentile score will be based on the relative performance of all the aspirants appearing in the exam. The score will be obtained after transforming the scores into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees.

As per the official website, "The Percentile Score indicates the percentage of candidates that have scored EQUAL TO OR BELOW (same or lower raw scores) that particular Percentile in that examination. Therefore the topper (highest score) of each session gets the same Percentile of 100 which is desirable. The marks obtained in between the highest and lowest scores are also converted to appropriate Percentiles."

Difference between Percentage and Percentile

Percentile and the percentage of marks are two very different entities. Thus, aspirants should not confuse both the above terms. Here is the difference:

Percentage

Percentile

A percentage is a number out of 100

Percentile score of a candidate will reflect how many candidates have scored below that candidate in an exam. A Percentile score is the value below which a certain percent of observations fall.

JEE Main Marks vs Percentile score

Candidates can refer to the table given below which gives JEE Main Marks vs Percentile score:
