NIMCET 2025 What is a Good Score? 

The NIMCET 2025 exam is for a total of 1000 marks. Scoring high marks on the exam can be quite difficult. Scoring a high score on the NIMCET 2025 exam will ensure students are able to have a higher rank on the exam. Scoring above 750 marks on the exam, a student will be estimated to be placed in the top 200 ranks. 

A good score on the NIMCET 2025 for top NITs must ensure that students are in the top 500 ranks. Most of the top NITs have their closing ranks within this range. Knowing this it will be easy to say that a good score on the NIMCET exam can be considered above 500 marks to achieve the required ranks for the top NITs.

Provided below is a simple overview of which marks lead to which ranks on the NIMCET 2025 examination. Following this table can help students understand what ranks to expect based on their approximate scores on the NIMCET 2025 examination. 

The marks vs ranks for NIMCET 2025 are as follows: 

Raw Marks (out of 480)

Expected Range of Ranks

1 - 100

300 - 359

240 - 299

500 - 619

501 - 1500

180 - 239

380 - 499

1501 - 3000

280 - 379

Less than 289

6001 - 10,000

 

Scoring anything that results in a rank less than 6000 can severely reduce the opportunities available to students. At that level it will be difficult to get into any NITs, even the relatively newer or lesser-known branches of the college.
