How is PUBDET Rank Calculated?

WBJEEB assigns each candidate a General Merit Rank (GMR) based on their performance in the entrance exam. WBJEEB calculates PUBDET merit rankings based on entrance test scores. The ranking is called the General Merit Rank (GMR) and is arranged in descending order of marks. In case of tie, a specific tie-breaking rule is applied to determine the final rank. 

WBJEEB does not publish a general rank or score list for all candidates. Each candidate can only download their own personal rank card via the official website. In addition to the GMR, category-specific ranks are also assigned on the PUBDET rank card. 

Predict Your College

Once your rank is released, students can use PUBDET opening and closing rank data from previous years to estimate their college and subject chances. Students can also use PUBDET college predictor by shiksha to predict their college.
