What after JEE Main Result 2025?

The next steps after the announcement of JEE Main results depend on your rank and aspirations. Here is what you can do after JEE results are declared:

1. Aspiring to the IITS? Target JEE Advanced 2025:

• Eligibility: The first 250,000 rankers (of all categories) in JEE Main 2025 are eligible to sit for JEE Advanced 2025. Without clearing the JEE Advanced, candidates will not be able to take entry to the coveted Indian Institutes of Technology (IITS).

• Separate Registration: Eligible students have to register separately for JEE Advanced. Therefore, you should keep an eye on the IIT's official website for registration dates and details. Additionally, candidates should note that the JEE Advanced requires a better understanding of concepts and advanced problem-solving ability.  

2. Considering Admission to NITs, IIITs, and GFTIs? Attend JoSAA Counselling:

• Unified Counselling: Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) performs a centralised counselling procedure for IITS, NITS, IIITS, and other Government Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIS) admissions as per your JEE Main and JEE Advanced ranks (if applicable).

• Choice Filling and Registration: Eligible candidates must register on the JoSAA website and fill in their choice of institutes and courses in priority order. JoSAA makes several rounds of seat allotment depending on your merit and the options you've filled. Keep yourself informed about the counselling schedule and results of each round.

3. Explore State-Level Engineering Colleges:

• State Entrance Exams: Many states have their own engineering entrance exams for admission to colleges like MHT CET for Maharashtra, KCET for Karnataka.

• JEE Main Scores: Certain state-level colleges may also use JEE Main scores for admission, so you can check the particular admission requirements of colleges in your desired state.

4. Keep Private Engineering Colleges in Mind:

• Independent Entrance Exams: Good private engineering colleges tend to have their own entrance exams, including  BITSAT for BITS Pilani, VITEEE for VIT, and SRMJEEE for SRM.

• JEE Main Score Acceptance: Certain private colleges may also accept JEE Main scores for admission. Thus, you should research the admission criteria of such colleges.

5. Options Beyond Traditional Engineering:

• IISERS and NISER: In case you have a strong interest in basic sciences, the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERS) and the National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) are options to consider. The admissions to IISERS are based on the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT), whereas NISER holds its own entrance exam.

• IIST: For space science and technology aspirants, the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) has its own selection procedure.

• Other Specialised Institutes: You can research other specialised institutes that suit your interest, each with its own selection criteria.

What are JEE Percentiles?

The JEE percentile score is not the same as the percentage of marks you scored. It's a normalised score that reflects your performance in comparison to all the other candidates who appeared for the JEE Main exam in a specific session.

Here are some more details about JEE percentile scores:

• Relative Performance: A percentile score tells you the percentage of students who received a raw score equal to or lower than your raw score in that particular session. Suppose you obtained a 95 percentile. This means that 95% of the test-takers in your session received the same score as or lower than you.

• Session-Specific: Percentile scores are determined individually for every session of the JEE Main exam to take into consideration differences in the difficulty level between sessions.

• Normalisation: The NTA applies a normalisation process so that it can ensure fairness across all sessions. For this, they convert the candidates' raw marks into percentile scores. The top scorer in every session receives a 100th percentile.

• Merit List Basis: The JEE Main merit list is made based on these percentile scores.

• Up to 7 Decimal Places: Percentile scores are computed up to 7 decimal places in order to reduce ties and the bunching effect where several candidates could have the same percentile.

• Overall Percentile: The overall percentile is not simply the average of the percentile scores in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. It is calculated based on the total normalised marks across all three subjects.

• Rank Calculation: Your All India Rank (AIR) at JEE Main is essentially based on your percentile score. A higher percentile means a higher rank in general. In case of the candidates appearing in Session 1 as well as Session 2, the higher of the two NTA scores will be taken for the purpose of final ranking.
