What is a JEE/NEET Rank Predictor and how does it work?

A JEE/NEET Rank Predictor is a digital tool designed to estimate the All India Rank (AIR) or category rank of a candidate based on their marks obtained in the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) or the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). These rank predictors are particularly useful for aspirants who want to anticipate their standing before the official rank list is released.

How does it work?
The rank predictor uses the candidate's raw score and processes it through algorithms built on historical data trends. It considers the following key factors:

• Previous years’ rank vs marks data from official authorities like NTA and JAB.
• Category-wise reservation impact affecting cutoffs and ranks.
• Total number of candidates to estimate percentile and rank.
• Tie-breaking rules based on subject-wise marks and negative marking.

This statistical modeling may be supported by AI or machine learning for improved accuracy. By entering your NEET or JEE score along with category details, you receive an estimated rank that helps you gauge admission chances at various institutes.

Why is it useful?
It allows early insight into likely admission scenarios, helps students prepare for counselling confidently, and reduces uncertainty during the waiting period for official results.

Limitations: While useful, rank predictors cannot replace official ranks due to yearly exam variations. Use results as guidance rather than absolute decisions.
