Hello student,

The NTA Releases the JEE Mains percentile and rank after they normalize the scores, so the percentile can be different from what you expected. The overall NTA score is your percentile. So don't go by your individual subject-wise scores, since the overall percentile is calculated after normalisation. Let's understand the concept of normalisation, so that you're able to understand why the scores van be different form what you expected:

Normalisation in JEE Mains is a procedure implemented to ensure fairness and equity in evaluating the performance of students across different shifts or sessions of the exam. Since JEE Main is conducted over multiple shifts to accommodate a large number of candidates, the difficulty level of the question papers may vary slightly between different shifts. JEE Main normalisation procedure helps account for these variations and ensures that no candidate is unfairly advantaged or disadvantaged due to the difficulty level of their particular shift.

If you want to check your rank range based on your percentile, then you can refer to the Careers360 JEE Main Rank Predictor: https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-rank-predictor?
