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. |
