NEET Percentile Calculator 2024

Percentage is calculated based on your score out of total marks (720), while percentile indicates your relative position compared to all test takers. For example, a 90 percentile means you scored better than 90% of candidates.

Our calculator provides estimates based on historical data and statistical analysis. While we strive for accuracy, actual results may vary slightly depending on the current year’s exam difficulty and number of candidates.

For general category candidates, typically 98+ percentile is needed for government colleges. For reserved categories, the cutoff is lower (OBC: 90+, SC/ST: 70+). These vary by state and college.

While the overall percentile remains the same, category rank is calculated separately. Reserved category candidates have lower cutoff percentiles for admission under their quota seats.

You can get an estimate using our calculator with your expected score, but the most accurate calculation requires the final answer key and your official score.

Rank is estimated using the formula: Rank ≈ (100 – Percentile) × Total Candidates / 100. Our calculator uses more sophisticated methods for better accuracy.

The top percentile is always 100 (perfect score). In 2023, the topper scored 720/720 (100 percentile), with about 20 candidates scoring in the 99.9999+ percentile range.

While the calculation method remains the same, the score-percentile relationship varies based on exam difficulty and candidate performance each year.

For private colleges, 70+ percentile is generally required for general category, with lower cutoffs for reserved categories. Top private colleges may require 90+ percentile.

Focus on high-weightage topics, practice time management, take mock tests regularly, analyze mistakes, and maintain consistency in preparation to improve both score and percentile.
