NORMALISATION OF MARKS:

The entrance test question paper for M.E. / M.Tech. / M.Arch. / M.Plan. will have two common parts,

Part – I Engineering Mathematics and Part – II Basic Engineering & Sciences, and

 Part – III meant for different disciplines.

 On evaluation, the average marks may vary from discipline to discipline under Part – III. Thus, Marks of Part III will be computed using the formula

Computed Marks of Part III = (X+r) m

where  X is the adjustment factor,

 r is the raw mark scored by the candidates and

 m is the multiplication factor used to level the averages of all subjects.

This gives the relative ranking of the candidates in any discipline. aglasem.com 8 Candidates who have written the TANCET will normally be notified with actual marks and percentile score they have obtained, at the time of publishing result. However, to avoid projecting negative scoring, the final score card contains only the percentile score.

The percentile score is calculated using the formula:

Percentile Score =(Y/N)*  100.

       where Y is number of students scored lesser mark than the candidate in that examination and

 

       N is the total number of students appeared for the examination.
