Hi
hope you doing well
In 2024, around 11-12 lakh total candidates are expected to appear for JEE Mains, and Typically, about 7-10% of the total candidates belong to the SC category, which means roughly 80,000–1,20,000 SC candidates.
If you score 96 percentile , it means you have performed better than 96% of the total candidates.
All-India Rank (AIR): AIR=(100−96)%×12,00,000=48,000\text{AIR} = (100 - 96) \% \times 12,00,000 = 48,000AIR=(100−96)%×12,00,000=48,000
SC Category Rank (approximation): Since only SC candidates are considered for this rank: SC Rank=(100−96)%×1,00,000=4,000\text{SC Rank} = (100 - 96) \% \times 1,00,000 = 4,000SC Rank=(100−96)%×1,00,000=4,000.
Hence, with 96 percentile, your SC category rank is likely to be around 3,000 – 5,000.
hope you get it it and find this info useful
