hello aspirant,

You have to tell me your category. Since you have not mentioned your category, I am considering you as a GENERAL Category. If you have got 55 Score in JEE mains, and if you are from a general category, then your overall percentile score will be around 79.97 - 83.23 and the overall rank will be around 184140 - 207000 . These are your percentile score and rank respectively in your JEE mains paper. The percentile scores of JEE Main define the relative performance of all the candidates who attempted the JEE 2022 examination . The marks obtained by the aspirants in the JEE exam will be transformed into a scale that ranges from 100 to 0 for every exam session. Similarly the rank mentioned above is your ALL INDIA RANK (AIR). Your category rank will be much less, if you belong to any reserved category.

Now, after this, you have to sit in the counselling rounds like JOSAA counselling or CSAB counselling. In the counselling rounds, you will be allotted to Government colleges according to the rank score (Cutoff) by the candidate.

I hope that this will help.

Hello Aspirant,

It is your NTA score/Percentile which means that 55% candidates have scored less than or equal to you in your shift.

And if we go through the analysis of marks Vs Percentile Vs rank for JEE-Main 2021 then according to the percentile mentioned by you in the question his rank is expected to be in the range of 460350 - 517500 .


Note that the rank which is predicted is only the expected rank on the basis of previous year's data so your actual rank might vary depending upon current factors.
