 Result Calculation: 

The results of the main JEE 2020 will be determined through the normalization process. The exam will be held on different days and sessions; thus, some candidates may get an easy paper while others have to answer a harder question in the JEE Main 2020 exam paper. To ensure that there are no benefits of aspirants or losses because of this, the process of normalization will be adopted to determine the main results of JEE and rank. NTA will rank students based on the percentile score obtained in the exam. This percentile score will be calculated according to the formula specified before.

 Percentile Score: 

The January 2020 main exam will be held on several days, and sessions with test levels of examinations vary from day to day and from sessions to sessions. Thus, to ensure equity in assessing the performance of all test participants, the authorities that conduct examinations introduce a percentile system based on the normalization process. NTA uses the formula given below to calculate the percentile score of a candidate 

The formula for calculating JEE main’s percentile scores from a candidate: 

The formula for calculating the JEE score playing 2020 is: 

100 x Number of candidates appeared in the session with raw score, equal or to less than the candidate/ Total Number of aspirant who have appeared in that session 

Example: JEE Main was held in four test participant sessions where days and shifts were given randomly to candidates. 

Session-1: Day-1 Shift-1

Session-2: Day-1 Shift-2

Session-3: Day-2 Shift-1

Session-4: Day 2 Shift-2

JEE's main test participants are distributed in the following ways:

 In the example of the candidate distribution above, the method for calculating the highest RAW score on each paper will be normalized to 100, thus indicating that 100% of candidates have obtained the same score as or smaller than the scorer / peak for the trial.
