Dear Readers,

The qualifying marks (for various categories) required to be included in the various rank lists for JEE Advanced 2015 have been revised. The qualifying marks have been reduced by 30% across all categories. The new qualifying marks are as follows:

Rank list                                           Subject-wise           Aggregate

Common rank list                                     12                         124

OBC-NCL                                                  11                          112

SC                                                             06                         62

ST                                                             06                         62 

Important Information: Do note that the JEE Advanced 2015 comprised two papers – Paper 1 and Paper 2. Both these papers comprised questions on Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Candidates need to satisfy the subject-wise cut-offs and also secure the aggregate qualifying marks in order to be included in a rank list. Do note that the total marks obtained in a subject would be the sum of the marks awarded for that subject in Paper 1 and in Paper 2. The aggregate marks would be the sum of the marks obtained in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.

The following are the important details regarding the maximum possible marks:

Maximum aggregate marks: 264 (Paper-1) + 240 (Paper-2) = 504

Maximum marks in Physics: 88 (Paper-1) + 80 (Paper-2) = 168

Maximum marks in Chemistry: 88 (Paper-1) + 80 (Paper-2) = 168

Maximum marks in Mathematics: 88 (Paper-1) + 80 (Paper-2) = 168

Tie-break rules:

The candidate with a higher aggregate score will be awarded a higher rank (small number). If two candidates have the same aggregate score, the candidate with higher marks in Mathematics will be awarded a higher rank (small number). If two candidates have the same aggregate score and also the same score in Mathematics, the candidate with higher marks in Physics will be awarded a higher rank (small number). If two candidates have the same aggregate score and also the same score in Mathematics and Physics, both the candidates will be awarded the same rank.

All the Best!
