How to calculate the NTA score or percentile score of a candidate?

 

NTA score is not the exact percentage of marks candidates obtain in the JEE Main exam. The exact marks are called raw scores. To calculate the NTA score or percentile of a candidate:

 

NTA Score or Percentile =	100 X No. of candidates who scored equal to or less than specified marks
	Total no. of candidates appeared in the JEE Main Session 1 exam

 

Once the results of both the sessions of JEE Main 2022 exam are released, the AIR (All India Ranks) of candidates will be declared based on the NTA scores of candidates of both sessions. Session 2 of the JEE Main 2022 exam was conducted from 25 to 30 July 2022 and JEE Main 2022 Session 2 exam result will be declared on August 6, 2022.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

1. What are the opening and closing ranks for IITs?
   Admission to B.Tech programs in IITs is done on the basis of All India Ranks (AIR) of candidates in JEE Advanced exam. They will be declared after the JEE Advanced 2022 exam is conducted and its results are declared. The opening and closing ranks for admission to various B.Tech courses offered by IITs change every year.
    
2. What are the minimum marks required for admission to NITs, CFTIs, and other engineering colleges?
   Earlier, candidates had to obtain at least 75% marks in the Class 12 exam (or be in the top 20 percentile in the Class 12 exam) to be eligible for the JEE Main exam. NTA has removed this criterion now. The minimum marks required for admission to NITs, CFTIs, and other engineering colleges are based on the final NTA merit list.
    
3. What are the changes introduced in JEE Main 2022?
   The key changes of JEE Main 2022 exam include the introduction of negative marking for Section B questions too. Section B contains numerical value questions. Earlier, only Section A, which contained multiple-choice questions (MCQs) had negative markings.
   There's a penalty of 1 mark for each incorrect answer (1 mark gets subtracted from the total score of the student).
   In 2022, students were only allowed to choose the exam center cities from their state of present address or permanent address while filling up the form. Students were also not allowed to correct the JEE Main 2022 application form once they submitted it.
    
4. What is the syllabus of JEE Main?The syllabus of JEE Main is prescribed by NTA and is based on Class 11 and 12 Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics topics. Candidates can check the detailed JEE Main syllabus here.
    
5. How can I become a JEE Main topper?
   There is no shortcut or magic formula to become a JEE Main topper. Candidates must focus on their Class 11 and 12 studies and be aware of the topics included in the JEE Main syllabus. They must also solve as many JEE Main mock tests and previous year papers as possible to get familiar with the exam pattern, types of questions asked, and the level of difficulty.
