Hello,
After you appear in the JEE Main Exam the total score you get in the three subjects Physics, Chemistry and Maths is calculated.The negative marking plays a biggest factor in this
The Cutoff is decided and according to the cutoff the Ranking, Colleges and JEE Advanced appearing students are selected
Every year nearly more than 10 lakh students appear in the JEE Main Exam and only 224000 students would get into the JEE Advanced Exam.Students qualifying in the JEE Main Exam need to fill the JEE Main Colleges in the Main Counselling
The Difficulty of exam would make the cutoff lesser as compared to the previous year cutoff's
Rank depends upon various fators like the number of applicants fill the form, number of applicants finally appeared for the exam, number of questions asked in the exam, difficulty level of the exam and last years cut off trends. Previously jee main rank was decided on the basis of your jee main marks as well as your board percentage but from the year 2016 they're only considering your jee main rank.
Good Luck!!.
