How the Rank Prediction Works STEP 01
Marks → Raw Score
Your total marks (Phys + Chem + Math) out of 300, accounting for negative marking.
STEP 02
Equi-Percentile Normalization
NTA normalizes scores across shifts using equi-percentile method. We replicate this using historical shift data.
STEP 03
Percentile Calculation
Percentile = percentage of candidates who scored below you. 99.5 means you beat 99.5% of all test-takers.
STEP 04
AIR from Percentile
AIR = ((100 − P) / 100) × Total Candidates + 1. About 15.5 lakh unique candidates in 2026.
