NTA will be adopting normalised scores to declare the results of candidates as the exam was conducted in multiple shifts.

UGC NET Result 2023: Normalisation process

For papers conducted in multiple shifts, raw marks obtained by the candidates in different shifts or sessions will be converted to percentile score.

The percentile score of a candidate is calculated as follows:

100 X Number of candidates appeared in the ‘Session’ with raw score EQUAL TO OR LESS than the candidate / Total number of the candidates appeared in the ’Session’

In case a subject test is conducted in multiple shifts, NTA score will be calculated corresponding to the raw marks obtained by a candidate. The calculated NTA score for the raw marks for all the shifts will be merged for further processing for deciding the allocation.

If the percentiles for the multi-shifts are dissimilar or unequal, the lowest will be the eligibility cut-off for that category for all candidates (i.e. all shifts).

For Example: In the examination held in two shifts, if the 40% marks correspond to a percentile score of 78 in shift 1 and 79 in Shift 2, then all those equal to or above 78 percentiles (percentile score of 100 to 78) in both shifts will become eligible in general category.
