Chapter-8

EVALUATION CRITERIA

8.1 The performance of the Candidates in Part-I: Multiple Choice Objective Type Test and Part-II:

Computer Knowledge Test shall be evaluated as per the marking scheme mentioned in Clause

6.1 & 6.2.

8.2 In case the Part-I and Part-II Examination is conducted in more than one shift due to the

large number of candidates to be accommodated in limited number of computer nodes

available, Normalization procedure shall be adopted for ensuring equivalency in the question

papers administered to the Candidates in different shifts.

8.3 In case the Part-I and Part-II Examination is not conducted in multiple shifts, then

process of normalization shall not be applicable in computation of results.

8.4 The detailed procedure to be adopted for compilation of Percentile Score (NTA Score) for multi

session papers (based upon Normalization Procedure) is mentioned below:-

8.5 Normalization

8.5.1 NTA may conduct examinations on multiple dates, generally in two sessions per day. The

candidates will be given different sets of questions per session and it is quite possible that in

spite of all efforts of maintaining equivalence among various question papers, the difficulty

level of these question papers administered in different sessions may not be exactly the same.

Some of the candidates may end up attempting a relatively tougher set of questions when

compared to other sets. The candidates who attempt the comparatively tougher examination are

likely to get lower marks as compared to those who attempt the easier one. In order to overcome

such a situation, “NORMALIZATION PROCEDURE BASED ON PERCENTILE SCORE”

will be used for ensuring that candidates are neither benefited nor disadvantaged due to the

difficulty level of the examination. With the objective of ensuring that a candidate’s true merit

is identified, and that a level playing field is created in the above context, the Normalization

Procedure, shall be adopted, for compiling the Percentile Score (NTA scores) for multi session

papers.

8.5.2 The process of Normalization is an established practice for comparing candidate scores

across multi session papers and is similar to those being adopted in other large educational

selection tests conducted in India. For normalization across sections, NTA shall use the

percentile equivalence.

18

8.6 Percentile Scores

8.6.1 Percentile scores are scores based on the relative performance of all those who appear for the

Examination.

8.6.2 Basically the marks obtained are transformed into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each

session of examinees.

8.6.3 The Percentile score of a candidate indicates the percentage of candidates that have scored

EQUAL TO OR BELOW (same or lower raw score) that particular candidate in that

examination session. Therefore the topper (highest score) of each session will get the same

Percentile of 100 which is desirable. The marks obtained in between the highest and lowest

scores are also converted to appropriate Percentiles.

8.6.4 The Percentile score will be the Normalized Score for the examination (instead of the raw

marks of the candidate) and shall be used for preparation of the merit lists.

8.6.5 The Percentile Scores will be calculated up to 7 decimal places to avoid bunching effect and

reduce ties.

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’

Note: The Percentile of the Total shall NOT be an aggregate or average of the Percentile of individual

subject. Percentile score is not the same as percentage of marks obtained.

8.7 STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE FOR NORMALIZATION AND PREPARATION OF RESULT

8.7.1 Step-1: Distribution of Examinees in multiple shifts/sessions:

(i) Candidates will be distributed into multiple shifts/sessions randomly so that each shift/

session has City/ Category/ Gender wise approximately similar percentages of candidates.

(ii) This will ensure that there is no bias in the distribution of candidates who will take the

examination. Further, with a large population of examinees, the possibility of such bias

becomes remote.

(iii) Multiple shift/ sessions would be as follows:

Session-1: Day-1 Shift-1 Session-2: Day-1 Shift-2
