A Significant Change in Tie-Breaking Policy:
One of the key changes for JEE Main 2025 is the revised tie-breaking policy. In previous years, age was considered as a criterion to break ties between candidates with identical scores. However, for JEE Main 2025, the age factor has been eliminated.

JEE Main 2025 Tie-Breaking Policy: Age and Application Number Removed
The National Testing Agency (NTA) has revamped the tie-breaking policy for JEE Main 2025, focusing on a fairer ranking system based solely on exam performance. Previously, age and application number were used to differentiate candidates with identical scores in Paper 1 (B.E./B.Tech.).
Revised Tie-Breaking Process:
- Subject-Wise Merit: Candidates with a higher NTA score in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry (in that order) will be ranked higher.
- Correct-to-Incorrect Ratio: If a tie persists, the candidate with a lower ratio of incorrect to correct answers across all subjects will be prioritized. This metric is then applied to each subject individually (Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry) in case of further ties.
Same Rank for Remaining Ties: If, after following these steps, a tie still exists, both candidates will be assigned the same rank. This change simplifies the process and ensures a level playing field for applicants with identical scores.
By removing age and application number as factors, NTA has created a more transparent and merit-based system for ranking JEE Main 2025 candidates.
