Hi aspirant,

You have obtained 98 percentile in JEE Main and belong to OBC category. Based on this percentile your Common Rank list (CRL) would be 22,000 and the corresponding OBC category rank would be 5,000 approximately.

See since percentile depends on a number of factors there is no any method to calculate marks. NTA provides no tool for the same. Nevertheless, we can make a past year Analysis to predict the same. And accordingly based on 98 percentile your total marks would be 160 approximately.

All the best.
