MET rank = 50% exam score + 50% board marks. Enter your MET exam score (out of 240) and your 10+2 board marks out of 400 — Physics + Mathematics + English + your optional subject (Chemistry, Computer Science, Biology, or Biotechnology). Board marks default to 85% if not changed. Note: the MET exam paper has a fixed Chemistry section regardless of your board subject choice.

How MET Ranking Works
MET rank is determined by a composite merit score: 50% weightage to MET exam performance and 50% weightage to 10+2 board marks. This is the official MAHE ranking methodology.
MET Exam = Physics + Chemistry + Mathematics + English (max 240, fixed sections)
Board Marks = Physics + Mathematics + English + Optional Subject (max 400)
Optional Subject = Chemistry or Computer Science or Biology or Biotechnology
Board % = (Board marks / 400) × 100
MET % = (MET score / 240) × 100
Combined Merit = (MET % + Board %) ÷ 2
Rank = Candidates sorted in descending order of Combined Merit
Board Marks = Physics + Mathematics + English + Optional Subject (max 400)
Optional Subject = Chemistry or Computer Science or Biology or Biotechnology
Board % = (Board marks / 400) × 100
MET % = (MET score / 240) × 100
Combined Merit = (MET % + Board %) ÷ 2
Rank = Candidates sorted in descending order of Combined Merit

Frequently Asked Questions
MET rank is a composite of two components: 50% weightage to your MET exam score (normalised as a percentage of 240) and 50% weightage to your 10+2 board marks in Physics, Mathematics, English, and one optional subject (out of 400). The optional subject can be Chemistry, Computer Science, Biology, or Biotechnology — whichever you studied in Class 12. All candidates are sorted in descending order of this combined merit score to determine rank. Note: the MET exam paper itself always has a mandatory Chemistry section regardless of your board subject.
For CSE at MIT Manipal (main campus), you typically need a rank within 3,500–4,500. In MET 2025, the Round 1 cutoff for CSE at MIT Manipal was rank 3,479, and Round 2 closed at rank 4,484. A score of approximately 135–150 out of 240 in MET combined with 82–85% in board PCME usually achieves this rank range.
With a MET rank around 10,000, you can typically get Manipal University Jaipur (MUJ) for CSE or ECE, or non-CS branches at MIT Bengaluru. MIT Manipal (main campus) closes most branches within rank 8,000. With ranks between 15,000–30,000, MUJ branches and SMIT Sikkim are the most accessible options.
This predictor uses a calibrated lookup table based on MET 2025 marks-vs-rank analyses from CollegeDekho, KollegeApply, and Careers360, cross-validated against official 2025 counselling cutoffs for MIT Manipal. The predicted rank carries a ±20% margin of uncertainty. Actual ranks depend on cohort size, exam difficulty, and score distribution that year. Use it for planning; verify your official rank at manipal.edu.
Yes, MET MCQs carry −1 for wrong answers (+4 for correct). However, Numerical Answer Type (NAT) questions have no negative marking. The exam is conducted online (CBT) for 2 hours. There are four fixed sections: Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and English. Chemistry is mandatory in the exam paper — even students who studied Computer Science or Biology in Class 12 must attempt the Chemistry section in MET.
Disclaimer: This tool provides estimated ranks for planning purposes only. Predictions are based on MET 2025 analyses from CollegeDekho, KollegeApply, and Careers360 — not official MAHE data. Total candidate count (~1.5 lakh) is an estimate. Actual ranks vary year to year based on applicant count, score distribution, and exam difficulty. Always verify your rank and admission eligibility from the official Manipal admissions portal.
