NTA has been using normalization technique to equalise the difficulty levels of the exam when it is conducted in multiple sessions. Hence the results are generated in a percentaile basis.Percentile scores indicates the percentage of candidates that have scored equal to or below that particular percentile in the JEE Exam.Higher the percentile better the score.

According to previous year trend 86 percentile means around 51-60 marks.
