Because the JEE Main exam is conducted in different sessions and shifts, the level of difficulty also varies, and to deal with this, authorities use the process of JEE normalization. NTA releases the normalised JEE Main 2026 scores to indicate the percentage of examinees whose scores are equal to or below the scores of the candidate who scored the highest in that particular session. The formula used for the calculation of NTA scores for JEE result 2026 is as follows:
Formula = (100 x number of candidates who appeared in the session with a raw score equal to or less than the candidate) / total number of candidates who appeared in that session
Aspirants may note that the normalized NTA score is not the same as that of the percentage of marks obtained in the JEE test.
JEE Main Result 2026 - Percentile Calculation
The National Testing Agency calculates the scores of JEE Main 2026 for percentile for individual subjects separately (Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics) as well as in the combined format using the normalization formula as shown below.

If you belong to the BC (Backward Class) category, you can choose OBC-NCL in JEE Mains only if your caste is included in the Central OBC list released by the Government of India.
Here’s how it works:
Central OBC list: Used for national-level exams like JEE, NEET, UPSC, etc.
State BC list: Used only for state-level admissions or jobs.
So, if your BC caste name is in the Central list, select OBC–NCL while filling the JEE form.
If your caste is not in the Central list, choose General category, because the state BC certificate won’t be valid for JEE.
Example:
If you’re BC in Tamil Nadu but your caste isn’t in India’s Central list, you’ll be counted as General for JEE.
No, it’s not compulsory to fill the APAAR ID in the JEE Main application form right now.
If your APAAR ID shows a “credential mismatch” error even after entering the correct number, don’t worry, you can simply leave it blank and continue filling the form.
The APAAR ID field is optional for most students.
It’s mainly for linking your academic records under the Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) system.
The mismatch often happens if your Aadhaar details or school record name format differ.
So, you can submit your JEE form without the APAAR ID, and it won’t affect your application.
