when are open category rank given in nit? Do open category rank mean crl rank?
Hi aspirant,
The JEE Main result is announced by NTA in terms of percentile and then two types of ranks are calculated based on percentile -- Common Rank list (CRL) rank and Category rank. CRL rank is allocated to everyone whereas category rank is allocated to those who belong to the reserved categories like EWS/OBC/SC/ST/PwD. CRL rank is same as the open category rank. Allocation of seats during counselling is done based on these ranks, whichever applicable.
Hope it helps you.
