Tie-Breaking Rules
In cases where candidates have identical scores, the following tie-breaking criteria are applied:
- Higher Positive Marks: A higher number of positive marks can help a candidate be chosen.
- Subject Scores: In case marks in all subjects are the same, the candidates with the better marks in Mathematics or Physics are select.
- Age: In case of a tie, the seniors get a better ranking.
- JEE Main Scores: If the previous methods cannot separate the applicants, then applicants are ranked according to their JEE Main scores.

JoSAA Counselling 2025
On June 3, 2025, at 5:00 PM, the Joint Seat Allocation Authority (JoSAA) counseling procedure is scheduled to begin. Participation is open to candidates who have qualified for JEE Advanced 2025. IITs, NITs, IIITs, and other Government Funded Technical Institutes (GFTIs) offer admission to students through JoSAA.
Important Tips for Aspirants
After the results are announced, students should make sure to review their prospects during the JoSAA counselling period. Students should find out the minimum marks for each IIT, NIT and GFTI so they can compare them and make their final decisions after considering where these colleges are and the quality of their staff. Parents and students should try to make decisions about courses and careers that are interesting to them and help them reach their goals. Trying to stay calm, talk to your mentors and seek opinions from seniors will help you decide on the right course.
Looking Ahead
While the announcement of JEE Advanced 2025 results is a major milestone, it’s only the beginning of a new journey. For many students, this result is a stepping stone to pursuing their dreams at the IITs or other top institutes. However, it’s important to remember that success in life doesn’t hinge on one exam alone. Continuous learning, hard work, and resilience will be essential, no matter which path students choose. Those who didn’t secure their desired rank should not lose hope—there are many other opportunities and pathways to achieve their goals. Ultimately, the JEE journey teaches valuable lessons about discipline, time management, and the importance of perseverance, which will benefit every student in their future endeavors.
Final Thoughts
Many students have worked hard for months and now with the JEE Advanced 2025 results announcement, their hard work is finally recognized. Achievements by Rajit Gupta and Devdutta Majhi encourage others aiming for the same success. Throughout counselling, the process tells students to keep learning about their options and make decisions that best suit their skills and plans.
