Thousands of students compete to secure a seat in prestigious institutions like the <strong>Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs)<\/strong>. Since multiple candidates may obtain the same score, a <strong>tie-breaking policy<\/strong> is used to determine their ranking in a fair and systematic manner. In this article, we will discuss the tie-breaking criteria for JEE Advanced 2025, explaining how the ranking process works when two or more students achieve the same total marks.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What is the Tie-Breaking Policy in JEE Advanced 2025?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tie-breaking policy ensures that if two or more candidates score the same marks in JEE Advanced 2025, they can be ranked in a justifiable manner. The tie is broken step-by-step using the following criteria:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>1. Higher Marks in Mathematics<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>The first criterion is the <strong>marks obtained in Mathematics<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>The candidate who scores <strong>higher marks in Mathematics<\/strong> will be given a higher rank.<\/li>\n<li>If the tie still exists, then the next criterion is applied.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>2. Higher Marks in Physics<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>If two or more candidates have the same total score and the same Mathematics score, then the <strong>marks in Physics<\/strong> are considered.<\/li>\n<li>The candidate with <strong>higher marks in Physics<\/strong> will be ranked higher.<\/li>\n<li>If the tie persists, the next rule is applied.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>3. Combined Score in Mathematics and Physics<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>If the tie is still not broken, the <strong>combined score of Mathematics and Physics<\/strong> is considered.<\/li>\n<li>The candidate with the <strong>higher sum of Mathematics and Physics marks<\/strong> will be ranked higher.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>4. Age Criteria<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>If the tie remains unresolved even after considering Mathematics and Physics scores, then the <strong>age of the candidates<\/strong> is taken into account.<\/li>\n<li>The <strong>older candidate<\/strong> will be given preference and ranked higher.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>5. Random Draw (Final Criterion)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li>In an <strong>extremely rare scenario<\/strong> where all the above criteria fail to break the tie, a <strong>random draw (lottery system)<\/strong> is conducted.<\/li>\n<li>A computerized system randomly assigns ranks among the tied candidates.<\/li>\n<li>This method is rarely used and is only applied when all other tie-breaking rules fail.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Importance of Tie-Breaking Criteria<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The tie-breaking policy is essential to ensure:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\" data-spread=\"false\">\n<li><strong>Fairness<\/strong>: No two candidates can have the same rank; every student gets a unique ranking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transparency<\/strong>: The step-by-step approach ensures that the process is unbiased and predictable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Merit-Based Selection<\/strong>: By prioritizing subject-wise performance, the best candidates get preference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Step-by-Step Tie-Breaking Process<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The following table provides a summary of how the tie-breaking process works:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th><strong>Step<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Criteria Used<\/strong><\/th>\n<th><strong>Preference Given To<\/strong><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Higher Marks in Mathematics<\/td>\n<td>Candidate with higher Mathematics marks<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Higher Marks in Physics<\/td>\n<td>Candidate with higher Physics marks<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Combined Score in Mathematics &amp; Physics<\/td>\n<td>Candidate with a higher total in these two subjects<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Age of the Candidate<\/td>\n<td>Older candidate is ranked higher<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Random Draw<\/td>\n<td>Rank is assigned through a computerized draw<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Aakashians Shine Again in JEE Advanced 2024<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aakash.ac.in\/jee-advanced-results\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dcx0p3on5z8dw.cloudfront.net\/Aakash\/s3fs-public\/pdf_management_files\/target_solutions\/jee-advanced-results-2024-lp_banner-lg.webp\" alt=\"image.png\" data-pin-no-hover=\"true\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"Check_%E2%80%93_JEE_Advanced_2024_Result_of_Aakash\" class=\"ez-toc-section\"><\/span><span id=\"Check_%E2%80%93_JEE_Advanced_2024_Result_of_Aakash\" class=\"ez-toc-section\"><\/span><strong>Check \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aakash.ac.in\/jee-advanced-results\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"exclude\">JEE Advanced 2024 Result of Aakash<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n<table width=\"100%\" data-sheets-root=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>NAME<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>CRL-Rank (AIR)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rishi Shekher Shukla<\/td>\n<td>25<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>krishna sai shishir<\/td>\n<td>67<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Abhishek Jain<\/td>\n<td>78<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Hardik Aggarwal<\/td>\n<td>93<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ujjawal<\/td>\n<td>95<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rachit Aggarwal<\/td>\n<td>98<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PL8yzSJkwFafNanceOEteISJC2l7WSickQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow external noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dcx0p3on5z8dw.cloudfront.net\/Aakash\/s3fs-public\/pdf_management_files\/target_solutions\/jee-advanced-2024-playlist-video-lg.webp\" alt=\"JEE Advanced 2024 Topper\" data-pin-no-hover=\"true\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #1d1f20; font-size: 1.953em; text-align: justify;\">JEE Advanced 2025 Tie-Breaking Criteria FAQs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>1.
