Formerly, the age factor was omitted in 2021, nonetheless, the authorities have brought back this major amendment in 2022. Another added criteria for tie breakers are the application numbers in ascending order. This refers that if two candidates obtain the same score in the JEE Main exam 2022 and if other policies cannot resolve the tie, then the candidate who completed the registration first will get an added advantage over the other candidate(s).
