If students achieve equal marks in the entrance examination results, the merit list will be compiled based on the marks obtained in the Chemistry/Physics subject. In the event of a tie in this aspect, the marks obtained in Mathematics/Biology and English subjects will be considered. If equality persists among all these criteria, precedence will be given to the lower educational level. However, scores derived from these criteria will not be publicly disclosed.
