UGC NET Selection Process -Normalization

The UGC NET Exam 2023 will be held in a multi-shift. In that way, we have raw marks obtained by the candidates in different shifts/sessions which will be converted to NTA Score (percentile). NTA Score will be calculated corresponding to the raw marks obtained by a candidate.

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. A similar method will be adopted for the other categories to determine eligibility cut-offs. In case the examination is held in a greater number of shifts the same principle shall apply.
