How will be the JEE Main 2025 score calculated?

The JEE Main score 2025 for Paper-1 and Paper-2 will be calculated differently. Mentioned below is the procedure for the calculation for both the papers.

  • Score of JEE Main = Number of correct answers x 4 – number of incorrect answers x 1

How is Candidate's Percentile Score for JEE Main paper-1 Calculated?

The percentile score will be the normalized score for JEE Main exam 2025 (instead of the raw marks of the candidate). The JEE Main 2025 percentile scores will be calculated up to 7 decimal places. NTA will use the following method to calculate the percentile score of a candidate:

100 * Number of candidates appeared in the ‘Session’ with raw score ‘Equal To Or Less’ than the candidate/Total number of the candidates appeared in the ‘Session'.

Rank List Preparation for JEE Main 2025 for Paper-1

Ranks will be prepared based on the percentile scores of the candidates in JEE Main 2025 as mentioned above. However, there may be instances where more than two candidates may score the same marks. In such a case the inter-se-merit guidelines will be enforced to allot the rank.

  • Candidates with a higher percentile score obtained in Mathematics will be given a better rank.
  • If the tie remains unresolved, the candidates with higher percentile scores in Physics will be awarded a better rank.
  • If the tie still remains unresolved, the candidates with the higher percentile score in Chemistry will be awarded a better rank.
  • In case the tie is still not resolved, then the candidates older in age are preferred.

Raw marks for JEE Main paper-2

JEE Main paper-2 is conducted in two shifts, the raw marks obtained by all the candidates who appeared in the first attempt will be declared. This shall comprise the actual marks obtained in Paper 2 of JEE (Main) 2025 for the first attempt.

Rank List Preparation for JEE Main 2025 for Paper-2

The rank list will be prepared by merging the raw scores of the first and the second attempt. Candidates who have appeared in both the attempts; their best of the two raw marks will be considered. The total raw marks of both the attempts and rank of Paper-2 for all candidates will be declared. This shall comprise the total raw marks obtained by the candidate in the first attempt as well as in the second attempt along with All India rank and All India category rank. In case of a tie, inter-se merit will be determined in the following order.

  • Candidates obtaining higher marks in the Aptitude Test in Paper 2
  • Candidates obtaining higher marks in the Drawing Test in Paper 2
  • Candidates older in age
  • If the resolution is not possible after this criterion, candidates will be given the same rank.

Important Points of JEE Main Common Rank List

  • The common rank list of JEE Main will include candidates given ranks as per their performance but with a tag of GEN, GEN-PwD, OBC-NCL, OBC-NCL-PwD, SC, SC-PwD, ST or ST-PwD.

  • The category ranks will be separate from the JEE Main 2025 common rank list where the list will consist of the same category candidates assigned ranks based on their performance in JEE Main 2025.
