JEE Advanced Rank Predictor
Estimate JEE Advanced rank from score and explore IIT/branch options for planning. Estimates vary by year and category - verify with official counselling cutoffs.
This predictor helps with planning and preference building. Use it to understand a rough rank band and to shortlist branches/campuses you might target.
For JEE Main planning, use the JEE Main rank predictor.
How to use the predictor
Enter score and options, then review rank bands and shortlists.
1. Enter your score
Use your official score (or best estimate) for the year.
2. Select category/list
Options differ across rank lists and categories.
3. Shortlist and verify
Use results for planning, then verify with official cutoffs.
What affects rank and IIT options
Why estimates can differ and why cutoffs move.
Score-to-rank mapping changes
Rank distributions vary by year due to difficulty and candidate performance.
Category and rank lists
There are different rank lists by category. Options and cutoffs depend on which list applies to you.
Branch and campus preferences
A slightly different preference order can change outcomes at the same rank.
Counselling data is the source of truth
Use this tool for planning, but verify with official counselling round cutoffs.
JEE Advanced marks vs rank - indicative bands
Approximate CRL bands from recent JEE Advanced cycles. Total marks and difficulty change every year, so treat bands as relative guides.
| Approx. Marks (of ~360) | Indicative Rank Band | Outlook |
|---|---|---|
| 300+ | Top ~100 | Old IIT CSE anywhere |
| 250 – 300 | ~100 – 1,000 | Top 5 IITs, good branches |
| 200 – 250 | ~1,000 – 4,000 | Old IITs, core branches |
| 150 – 200 | ~4,000 – 12,000 | Newer IITs; older IITs lower-preference branches |
| 100 – 150 | ~12,000 – 25,000 | Newer IITs via later rounds; category seats |
Common pitfalls
Overconfidence on close calls
When cutoffs are tight, small year-to-year shifts can change outcomes. Keep backup options.
Not considering branch trade-offs
Rank predictors are most useful when you compare multiple preference scenarios.
Ignoring eligibility and rules
Seat allocation depends on eligibility and counselling rules beyond rank alone.
Using unofficial lists
Always cross-check cutoffs with official counselling data from JoSAA/authorities.
