Students with a combined score of 60 marks or above have chances of scoring a rank below 5000 as per previous years' trends. In 2025, a combined score of 60 resulted in a 4,900 rank. There is 25% weightage for IPE marks in determining the EAMCET ranks. Therefore, the results are declared in the form of combined score (75% weightage to AP EAMCET marks and 25% weightage to IPE marks).
