Only candidates who appear for BOTH Paper 1 and Paper 2 will be considered for ranking.
The marks obtained by a candidate in Physics in JEE (Advanced) 2021 will be equal to the marks scored in the Physics part of Paper 1 plus the marks scored in the Physics part of Paper 2. Marks obtained in Chemistry and Mathematics will be calculated in the same method.
The aggregate marks obtained by a candidate in JEE (Advanced) 2021 will be the sum of the marks awarded to the candidate in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics.
Rank lists are prepared based on the aggregate marks in JEE (Advanced) 2021.
If the aggregate marks scored by 2 or more candidates are the same, then the following tie-break policy will be used for awarding ranks:
Step 1: Candidates having higher positive marks will be awarded higher rank.
If the tie breaking criterion at Step 1 fails to break the tie, then the following criterion at Step two will be followed.
Step 2: Higher rank will be assigned to the candidate who has obtained higher marks in Mathematics. If this does not break the tie, higher rank will be assigned to the candidate who has obtained higher marks in Physics. If there is a tie even after this, candidates will be assigned the same rank.
Rank lists for preparatory courses [see Clause 28. PREPARATORY COURSES] will be prepared for SC, ST, and PwD applicants in all categories who satisfy the prescribed relaxed criteria given below.
A candidate who qualifies in more than one category will be considered in all the categories to which he/she belongs for the purpose of ranking.
There will be no waiting list for ranking.
Only those candidates who score the minimum prescribed marks in each subject and also in aggregate will be included in the rank list. The minimum prescribed marks vary with the category as shown in the following table.
Minimum percentage of marks prescribed for inclusion in the rank list

NOTE: (i) CRL is the rank list in which all candidates (across all categories) will be given ranks. (ii) Minimum percentage of aggregate marks may be lowered subsequently, if required, as per the MHRD directive (F.No. 28-8/2017-T.S.-I) dated June 13, 2018.
