When two or more candidates secure identical total marks in the INI SS exam, AIIMS applies the following tie-breaking rules to determine merit ranks:
-
Fewer Negative Marks: Candidates with fewer incorrect responses (higher accuracy rate) in the exam are placed higher in rank.
-
Age Preference: If a tie still persists, the older candidate in age is granted preference and awarded the higher rank.
