The computer-based test (CBT) was administered in 348 exam centres located in 187 cities on July 25, 26 and 27. A total of 2,25,335 candidates registered for the exam.

The CSIR UGC NET exam was held in two shifts for earth, atmospheric, ocean and planetary sciences, physical sciences, life sciences, mathematical sciences, life sciences, chemical sciences papers.

As per the normalisation method, the raw score obtained by the candidates in each session is converted into percentile scores ranging between 100 to 0. The percentile score is calculated by multiplying 100 into the number of candidates with a raw score equal to or less than the candidate and dividing it by the total number of candidates who appeared in the session.

“The Percentile Scores will be calculated up to 7 decimal places to avoid bunching effect and reduce ties,” it said.
