NEET rank also gets affected by the NEET difficulty level. If the paper is easier, more students score higher, which could lower a candidate’s rank for the same score compared to previous years.
The category of the student influences the NEET rank. Students of general category may get higher rank compared to those belonging to the reserved category at the same score because of reservation policy in NEET.
NEET has some tie breaking rules to place candidates obtaining equal marks at different positions in the merit list. If two or more candidates score the same marks, the authority applies the NEET tie breaking policy which ultimately affects the rank of the candidate.
