Hello,


In the context of entrance exams like JEE Main, NEET, or other competitive exams, the following percentiles are commonly used:


1. Overall Percentile: This is the overall percentage of candidates who have scored below you. It's calculated based on the total number of candidates who appeared for the exam.


2. Subject-wise Percentile (e.g., Science Percentile): This is the percentage of candidates who have scored below you in a specific subject (e.g., Science). It's calculated based on the scores of candidates in that particular subject.


3. Overall Theory Percentile: This is not a commonly used term. However, it might refer to the overall percentile calculated based on the theory papers or subjects (excluding practical or other components).


hope this helps,

Thank you
