Hey amruthavarshini,

I hope you are doing well ,

PGCET ranks are calculated based on the score secured in MBA entrance exam.

Candidate scoring highest marks say, 90 gets rank 1. The candidate scoring next highest marks say, 89 gets rank 2. However, if there are 5 students scoring 88 then there’s a tie!

If the marks/ merit of two or more candidates is tied, the following method of tie-breaker will be used:

• The total aggregate marks in the qualifying examination of the candidate will be marked. The higher qualifying marks will gain higher merit.
• If the marks are equal again, then the age of the candidate will be taken in account, where the candidate elder in age will get higher merit.
• Still, if the merit is tied, the merit will be determined by draw of lots.

I hope you are cleared

thanks for asking the question

best of luck for your future
