If while preparing JEE Main 2019 AIR, there is a tie between two or more candidates, then the tie-breaking method is used. The preference is given to a candidate who scores the highest marks in the Mathematics section. If there is still a tie, then the marks in Physics and further in Chemistry will be considered. If the tie still persists then a candidate older in age is given preference. If a decision is still impending, then two students will be given the same rank.

The percentile score of JEE Main are the normalized marks of the candidates, denoting the number of candidates who score more or less than the candidate in a particular session. Hence, if the percentile score of the candidates is 7 and in total 10 candidates appear for the exam. Then, there are 3 candidates who less than the candidate and there are 6 candidates who scored more than the candidates.
