The NEET percentile is statistical data of how well a student did in the NEET UG exam compared to everyone else who appeared in the NEET exam. The NEET percentile tells the percentage of students who scored the same or lower than a specific student's score. The higher the percentile, the higher the NEET rank of the student.
A score of 715 out of 720 means a candidate answered 179 questions correctly and one question incorrectly. As per the previous year's trends of NEET marks vs percentile, a 715 mark is almost equivalent to 99.99 percentile.
The NEET percentile and rank can vary according to the marks obtained by the students. Some of the factors that can affect how 715 marks translate into percentile and rank are as follows:
The total registration in NEET UG directly impacts the percentile for 715 marks. The more the number of registered candidates, even a difference of a single mark can significantly change the percentile and rank of a candidate.
The difficulty level of the NEET exam can also affect the marks vs rank vs percentile. If NEET exam is more challenging, fewer candidates will score in the 700+ range, potentially pushing a score of 715 closer to AIR 1 and 100 percentile. On the other hand, if the NEET exam is easier, it could lead to more competition for rank in the top 10 with more candidates scoring 715 marks, potentially lowering the percentile below 100.
If two candidates have the same score, the NTA uses specific NEET tie-breaking policy. So, a candidate who scores 715 and does well in Biology and Chemistry might be ranked higher than others with the same score.
