No 2 Candidates to Get Same Rank

One of the biggest changes that have been made to the JEE Main Tie Breaking Formula by NTA deals with the way rank is awarded to the candidates. As per the revised tie-breaking formula, no two candidates who score the same number of marks will be awarded the same rank. In order to calculate distinct ranks for JEE Main 2022 Toppers, the apex testing agency has included the criteria of application. This means that in case two candidates secure the same number of marks or identical scores, same marks in each of the subjects and have the same date of birth; the candidate who had applied the exam earlier would be given a higher rank. While the circumstances of candidates having the first three fields as completely identical is unlikely; but the provision will surely address concerns some students had about being accorded the same rank based on the same score.
