IIT JAM Result 2024 Tie-Breaking Criteria
If two or more candidates achieve the same rank/score then the result committee uses the Tie-Breaking Criteria. Here’s how it works:
- If two or more candidates have the same score, the one with a higher ratio of positive marks to negative marks gets the higher rank. This rewards accuracy over guesswork.
- If the positive-to-negative ratio is also equal, the tie-break moves to specific sections within the paper. Higher marks in sections like Part A (often considered more analytical) or specific subject areas can give you the edge.
- If all the above criteria are still equal, the tie is broken based on date of birth. Older candidates get the higher rank.
- Within each category (General, SC, ST, OBC, etc.), the tie-break follows the same criteria as above (positive-to-negative ratio, specific sections, date of birth).
- In extremely rare cases where all the above criteria are identical for multiple candidates, the tie may be broken by random selection.
