JEE Main rank predictor

Our JEE Main rank predictor interpolates between published marks, percentile and rank data from 2023-2025 to estimate your All India Rank (AIR). Simply enter your expected marks (out of 300) or your percentile score, select your category, and get instant predictions.

The tool considers:

• Historical marks vs rank trends from JEE Main 2023, 2024, and 2025
• NTA's percentile normalization across multiple exam sessions
• Total candidates (~15.4 lakh in 2024)
• Category-wise rank distribution for accurate predictions

Yes! Our JEE Main rank predictor from marks allows you to enter your expected score (0-300) and instantly see your predicted rank. The marks-to-rank conversion uses historical data analysis showing:

• 280+ marks: AIR under 500
• 250-280 marks: AIR 500-5,000
• 200-250 marks: AIR 5,000-25,000
• 150-200 marks: AIR 25,000-1,00,000
• 100-150 marks: AIR 1,00,000-2,50,000

Simply toggle to 'Marks' mode and enter your expected score for instant rank prediction.

Our JEE Main rank predictor from percentile is perfect if you already have your NTA percentile score from the official result. Here's how percentile converts to rank:

Rank = Total Candidates × (100 - Percentile) / 100

For example, with 15 lakh candidates:
• 99.9 percentile ≈ AIR 1,500
• 99 percentile ≈ AIR 15,000
• 95 percentile ≈ AIR 75,000
• 90 percentile ≈ AIR 1,50,000

Just toggle to 'Percentile' mode and enter your score for accurate rank prediction.

Our JEE Main rank predictor 2026 gives an estimate from past years' data. Your actual rank depends on the difficulty of your shift and on NTA's normalisation, so treat the range as a guide.

We incorporate:
• Latest cutoff data from JEE Main 2024 and 2025
• Expected trends and normalization
• Updated college seat matrices
• Category-wise cutoff patterns

While no predictor is 100% accurate (as NTA normalization varies), our tool provides reliable estimates for college shortlisting and counseling planning.

Yes! Our JEE Main rank predictor category wise shows both your All India Rank (AIR) and your category rank:

Available Categories:
• General - Open category with highest cutoffs
• OBC-NCL - 27% reservation (typically 10-15% lower cutoffs)
• EWS - 10% reservation for economically weaker sections
• SC - 15% reservation with significantly lower cutoffs
• ST - 7.5% reservation with relaxed cutoffs

Select your category in the form to see both your overall AIR and specific category rank for accurate college predictions.

Yes, 100% free and no login required! Our JEE Main rank predictor works without any registration, sign-up, or personal information.

Unlike other tools that ask for email, phone number, or social login:
• No account creation needed

We believe every JEE aspirant deserves access to quality guidance tools without barriers.

Based on your JEE Main rank, you can get admission through JoSAA Counseling in:

• 31 NITs (National Institutes of Technology)
• 26 IIITs (Indian Institutes of Information Technology)
• 33 GFTIs (Government Funded Technical Institutes)
• SPAs (Schools of Planning and Architecture)

Our predictor shows you eligible colleges based on your predicted rank and category. Check the 'Colleges Accepting JEE Main Scores' section for detailed cutoffs.

Note: This tool does NOT predict IIT admissions, which require qualifying JEE Advanced separately.

NTA uses percentile normalization to ensure fairness across multiple exam sessions:

Formula: Percentile = ((Total Candidates - Rank) / Total Candidates) × 100

Example: If 15 lakh candidates appear and your rank is 15,000:
Percentile = ((15,00,000 - 15,000) / 15,00,000) × 100 = 99%

This means you scored better than 99% of candidates. Key points:
• Highest percentile is 100 (Rank 1)
• Multiple candidates can have same percentile
• Final percentile is best of all attempts in a year

Understanding cutoffs is crucial for JEE Main counseling:

Qualifying Cutoff:
• Minimum percentile to qualify for JoSAA counseling
• General category 2024: 93.30 percentile
• OBC: ~72 percentile
• SC/ST: Much lower (35-45 percentile)

Admission Cutoff (Closing Rank):
• Last rank at which a student got admission in a specific college-branch
• Varies from AIR 100 (top NITs, CSE) to AIR 50,000+ (newer institutes)
• Changes each year based on seats, preferences, and competition

You must first qualify, then your admission depends on rank vs closing ranks during counseling rounds.

Yes! While this is primarily a JEE Main rank predictor, we also show your JEE Advanced eligibility status.

JEE Advanced Eligibility Criteria:
• Top 2.5 lakh rank holders in JEE Main qualify
• This typically means percentile of ~95+ (varies by year)
• Category-wise top percentages also qualify

Our predictor indicates whether your predicted rank makes you eligible for JEE Advanced. However, for JEE Advanced rank prediction (for IIT admissions), you'll need a separate tool after appearing for that exam.

Our JEE Main rank predictor is regularly updated to maintain accuracy:

• After JEE Main Results: Updated with latest marks vs rank data
• After JoSAA Rounds: Refreshed college cutoffs and closing ranks
• Before Next JEE Main: Trends analyzed and predictions calibrated

Current Update Status:
✓ Includes JEE Main 2024 and 2025 complete data
✓ 2026 predictions based on trend analysis
✓ All 90+ NIT/IIIT/GFTI college cutoffs updated
✓ Category-wise cutoffs refined after each counseling

While our JEE Main rank predictor provides accurate estimates, we recommend a comprehensive approach:

Use this tool to:
• Get initial rank estimate from marks/percentile
• Shortlist 15-20 potential colleges
• Understand category-wise rank benefits

Additionally:
• Add buffer: Include colleges with cutoffs 15-20% above AND below your rank
• Check official data: Verify on official JoSAA website
• Consider preferences: Location, fees, placements, branch preferences
• Talk to seniors: Get insights on actual counseling experience

Treat this as informed guidance for planning, not a guarantee of admission.
