Revised Qualifying Marks For JEE (Advanced) 2015

The total marks obtained in mathematics will be the marks awarded for mathematics in Paper1 and Paper 2. The total marks obtained in physics and chemistry will also be calculated in the same way. The aggregate marks will be calculated as the sum of the marks obtained in mathematics, physics and chemistry. Candidates have to satisfy the subject – wise as well as the aggregate qualifying marks to be included in a rank list.

Minimum percentage of marks for inclusion in a rank list
Rank List	Minimum Percentage of marks in each subject	Minimum percentage of aggregate marks
Common rank list	7.00	24.500
OBC-NCL rank list	6.30	22.050
SC rank list	3.50	12.250
ST rank list	3.50	12.250
OPEN-PwD rank list	3.50	12.250
OBC-NCL-PwD rank list	3.50	12.250
SC-PwD rank list	3.50	12.250
ST-PwD rank list	3.50	12.250
Preparatory course rank lists	1.75	6.125

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 for ranking: Candidate with higher aggregate marks will be assigned a better/higher rank (smaller number).

If two candidates have the same aggregate marks, then the candidate with higher marks in mathematics will be assigned a better / higher rank (smaller number).

If two candidates have the same aggregate marks and the same marks in mathematics, then the candidate with higher marks in physics will be assigned a better / higher rank (smaller number).

If two candidates have the same aggregate marks and same marks in Mathematics and Physics, Then both the candidates will be assigned the same rank.

Rank lists for preparatory courses
Rank lists for preparatory courses (PC) will be prepared only if the number of candidates in the OPEN – PwD, OBC-NCL-PwD, SC, SC PwD, ST or ST-PwD rank lists is <= 1.4 times the number of seats in the corresponding categories.Candidates who are NOT in the OPEN – PwD, OBC -NCL-PwD, SC, SC-PwD, ST or ST-PwD rank lists will be included in the preparatory course rank list(s). A candidate has to satisfy subject – wise as well as aggregate qualifying marks to be present in a rank list.
