Frequently Asked Questions
How is NEET 2026 Rank Calculated?
NTA calculates the All India Rank (AIR) purely on the basis of your total marks out of 720 in NEET UG 2026. The formula: Physics (180) + Chemistry (180) + Biology (360) = Total Score. No normalization is applied since NEET is a single-shift exam.
Tie-Breaking Rule: (1) Biology marks, (2) Chemistry marks, (3) Physics marks, (4) Fewer incorrect answers, (5) Age — older candidate gets higher rank.
