NTA has announced the new tie-breaking criteria for JEE 2025 exam on the official website. A common doubt for candidates attempting the JEE Main 2025 exam is What Is The Impact Of New Tie-Breaking Rules On JEE 2025 Aspirants? The most important effect of the new tie-breaking rules on candidates attempting JEE Main 2025 is the improved openness and fairness in the ranking system. The JEE Main tie-breaking policy is used when candidates score the same marks in the exam.
As per last year's data, the JEE Main 2025 cut-offs increased slightly by 1% percentile for SC and ST as compared to 2024.
Category | Change (2024-2025) |
General | -0.14 |
Gen-PwD | +0.00606 |
EWS | -0.95 |
OBC-NCL | -0.25 |
SC | +1.06 |
ST | +1.20 |
The authority employs the JEE Main 2025 tie-breaking policy to decide which candidate gets a lower rank based on the pre-determined criteria. The authority is conducting the JEE Main exam in 2 sessions, session 1 from January 22 to 31, 2025 and session 2 from April 1 to 8, 2025. It is important for candidates to understand the impact of the new tie-breaking criteria on JEE 2025 aspirants as it affects the way the ranks are allotted to the candidates.
Better focus on Mathematics: As Mathematics remains a core subject in engineering as well as one of the more technically difficult subjects, students should focus more on mathematics as it is the primary tie-breaking criteria.
Equal prioritisation for all subjects: The new policy ensures that candidates pay equal attention in all subjects. While Mathematics NTA score is the first priority for the tie-breaking, physics and chemistry come next for the tie breaking parameters. Hence, candidates should pay equal attention to all 3 subjects

Focus on Accuracy and Problem solving: Candidates should also focus on the accuracy of the problem solving of the questions. Most of the questions asked in the JEE 2025 exam will be technical or conceptual, which require candidates to apply various concepts to answer the questions. The remaining tie-breaking criteria employed is the ratio of right to wrong answers by the candidates. This means that the candidates with higher correct answers and lower incorrect answers will be given priority. The correct to incorrect answers will be considered in the order of Maths, Physics and chemistry.
NOTE: For B.Arch and B.Planning, maths remains the top priority. Whereas physics will be replaced by Aptitude and Chemistry will be replaced by drawing and planning subjects respectively.
The following changes were employed by NTA as the revised tie-breaking policy. The authority made changes in the tie-breaking criteria in both paper 1 and 2 of the JEE Main 2025 exam.
NTA score in Mathematics,
NTA score in Physics,
NTA score in Chemistry,
Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in all the subjects in the Test,
Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Mathematics in the Test,
Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Physics in the Test,
Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Chemistry in the Test
If there is a tie even after this, candidates will be assigned the same rank.
NTA score in Mathematics,
NTA score in Aptitude Test,
NTA score in Drawing Test,

Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Planning Based Questions (Part-III) in the Test
If there is a tie even after this, candidates will be assigned the same rank.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
No, the authority has not removed the 75% criteria in the JE Main 2025 exam.
According to the new tie-breaking rules, mathematics should be given slightly more priority but candidates should focus on all subjects equally.

Yes, if you appear for the CBSE improvement exam as a private candidate and score higher marks, then the latest marksheet will be considered as your valid Class 12th result. For IIM A, B, C and other top IIMs, they look at the final updated marksheet that you present at the time of admission.
So, if you improve your percentage from 70% to 90%, then definitely the improved score will be counted in your profile evaluation. Just make sure you give the exam through the official CBSE improvement route and keep the valid documents.
Hey! For JEE Main 2026, focus on Physics: Modern Physics, Electrostatics, Magnetism, Thermodynamics; Chemistry: Coordination Compounds, Thermodynamics, Basic Concepts, Hydrocarbons; Maths: Coordinate Geometry, Calculus, Limits, Sets & Functions, Complex Numbers, 3D Geometry, Probability.
Removed topics: Physics – Semiconductors, Communication Systems; Chemistry – Surface Chemistry, s-block, Polymers, Alcohols/Phenols/Ethers; Maths – Induction, Reasoning, Triangle Inequality.
