Computer Based Test (CBT) Guidelines
The major examinations being conducted by NTA are Computer-Based Tests (CBT). A CBT requires
candidates to sit in front of a computer terminal (node) allocated to them against their Roll number and
Admit card. After logging the candidate will get detailed instructions for the examinations. At the
designated time of the start of the examination, the candidates will be able to proceed and see the
questions on the computer screen using the computer mouse. Candidates will have the option to
change/modify/edit/answers already entered at any time during the examination.
Procedure for appearing in Computer Based Test (CBT):
(Sample/mock test will be available on NTA website: www.nta.ac.in for hands-on practice)
(a) A computer terminal (node) indicating Roll Number will be allocated to each candidate.
Candidates should find and sit on their allocated computers only. Any candidate found to have
changed room/hall or the computer on their own other than the one allotted would lead to
cancellation of candidature and no plea in this regard would be entertained.
(b) For login, the candidate will have to enter a login ID and password. The computer terminal
allotted to the candidate will display the WELCOME login screen, Candidate’s photograph and
NET subject opted by the candidate.
Candidate Login Page

candidates would like to have a relook at that question again. A candidate has the option of
answering a question and simultaneously “Marked for Review”, these answers will be
considered for evaluation. However, if a candidate has simply put “Marked for Review” for a
question without answering it, the corresponding question marked for review without an
answer will not be considered for evaluation. It may be noted that a candidate can return to any

Appendix - VI
Procedure to be adopted for compilation of NTA scores for multi-session Papers
(Normalization procedure based on Percentile and Equi percentile method)
Need for Normalisation
For several subjects, the CUET (UG)-2022 has been conducted in different shifts.
Since the question paper for any subject in different shifts are different and it is
quite possible that despite all best possible efforts of maintaining equivalence
among various question papers, the difficulty level of these question papers
administered in different sessions may not be the same or similar. Some of the
candidates might have end up attempting a relatively tougher set of questions
when compared to other sets. The candidates who attempted the comparatively
tougher examination are likely to get lower marks as compared to those who
attempted the easier one; the scores of the students across shifts are not directly
comparable. There is a need for normalizing the marks across shifts to make them
amenable to such comparisons.
A Committee headed by Senior Professor from Indian Statistical Institution

Delhi and comprising of Senior Professors from Indian Institute of Technology
Delhi and University of Delhi had detail deliberations to arrive at
methodology.
As already intimated in the Information Bulletin of CUET (UG) - 2022 the

raw score of each candidate in each subject will be normalised using the
Equi- percentile method. This is done separately for each subject for which
examination is held in multiple shifts.
For each subject for which the examination is held in multiple shifts, the raw
score for each candidate appearing for the subject will be converted into NTA
Score (Percentile Score & Normalized Score) in the following three steps.
Step1: Convert Raw Scores into Percentile Scores.

The percentiles are calculated separately for each shift.
1. Record the number of candidates who have appeared in a shift. Denote
this number by N.
2. Sort all the candidates in one shift in decreasing order of their marks.
3. Note the raw marks for each candidate. Suppose this is denoted by T.
Count the number of candidates in that shift whose raw scores are less
than or equal to T. Denote this number by m.
4. The percentile score for this candidate is then calculated as:
𝑚
P = ∗ 100
𝑁
Illustration:
Suppose that the examination in a certain subject is held in two different
shifts, S1 and S2, say. Consider six candidates A, B, C, D, E and F out
of which A, B, C are from shift S1 and the other three are from shift S2.
67
Let the raw marks of the six candidates be 𝑥𝐴, 𝑥𝐵, 𝑥𝐶 (shift S1 marks) and
𝑦𝐷, 𝑦𝐸 , 𝑦𝐹 (shift S2 marks).
For candidates A, B, C, the percentiles are calculated using the total marks obtained by
candidates appearing in shift S1 (in the same subject) as explained above.
Similarly, for candidates D, E, F, the percentiles are calculated using the total marks
obtained by candidates appearing in shift S2 (in the same subject) as explained
above.
Let the respective percentiles be denoted by PA, PB, PC, PD, PE, PF.
The above data is summarised in the following table. The terms in red colour indicate
that these are the output of this step.
Shift S1 Shift S2
Candidate Raw score Percentile Candidate Raw score Percentile
A PA D PD
B PB E PE
C PC F PF
Since the calculation for percentiles in any shift depends only on the data from that
shift alone, there is a separate table for each shift.
Step2: Pull-back of the percentiles to the marks scale for each session to get Normalised
Score.
• The data across all sessions tabulated at the end of step 1 is collated into
a single table.
• The columns for the shift-wise raw score should are kept separate.
• All the records are then sorted in decreasing order of the percentiles.
Illustration (Continued):
In the illustrative example given above, suppose that the percentiles of the
six candidates satisfy
PE>PA>PC =PF>PB>PD
Then the collated table would look as given below:
Candidate Percentile RawscoreS1 RawScoreS2

E PE –
A PA –
C&F PC=P
F
B PB –
D PD –
Candidate C from shift S1 and candidate F from shift S2 have the same percentile.
The relevant entries under “Raw Score S1” and “Raw Score S2” are the actual
raw scores 𝑥𝐶 and 𝑦F respectively. This has the obvious interpretation that marks
𝑥𝐶 of shift S1 are equivalent to marks 𝑦𝐹 of shift S2.
68
Candidates A and B, appearing in shift S1, have a blank entry in column “Raw
Score S2”, as there is no corresponding candidate having exactly the same percentile
from shift S2. Similarly, Candidates D and E, appearing in shift S2, have a blank
entry in column “Raw Score S1”, as there is no corresponding candidate having
exactly the same percentile from shift S1.
• In the remaining part of this Step 2, the blank entries in the two “Raw Score”
columns are filled up using linear interpolation.
• Consider a record (row) whose entry in the column “Raw Score S1” is blank.
The blank will be replaced by the interpolated score X which is calculated as:
𝑥2 − 𝑥1
𝑋 = 𝑥1 + (𝑃 − 𝑝1)
𝑝2 − 𝑝1
Where:
- P is the corresponding entry in “Percentile” column
- x1 is the first non-blank entry BELOW X. i.e., x1<X and there is no

other non-blank entry in the column between x1 and X.
- x2 is the first non-blank entry ABOVE X. i.e., x2> X and there is

no other non-blank entry in the column between x2 and X.
- p1 is the entry in the “Percentile” column corresponding to x1 from the column
“Raw Score S1”.
- p2 is the entry in the “Percentile” column corresponding to x2 from the column

“Raw Score S1”.
Note that there may be several blank entries between x1 and x2.
• All the blank entries in column “Raw Score S1” can now be replaced by
the interpolated values.
• The blank entries in column “Raw Score S2” are also replaced using a
similar procedure.
The table in the illustrative example would look like the following, where the
entries in red indicate the addition output at the end of this step.

Step3: Calculation of the Normalised Score
Now for each subject there is a score assigned to each percentile value for each
session. The Normalised score, Z, corresponding to a percentile value P, is
calculated as:
Z= Average of (𝑢 , 𝑢 , 𝑢 , … … … . . 𝑢 )= 𝑢𝐴 + 𝑢𝐵 + 𝑢𝐶 +,…..+ 𝑢𝑡
𝐴 𝐵 𝐶 𝑡 t
Where 𝑢𝐴, 𝑢𝐵, 𝑢𝐶 , … … … . . 𝑢𝑡 denote the raw scores corresponding to the percentile P in each
of different sessions
The final table in the illustrative example would be as follows:
Raw Raw Normalized

C&F PC=PF 𝑦𝐹 (𝑥𝐶 + 𝑦𝐹)/2

Step3: Calculation of Normalized Score: Now for each subject there is a score assigned to
each percentile value for each session. The Normalised score, Z, corresponding to a
percentile value P, is calculated as:
Z= Average of (𝑢𝐴,𝑢𝐵,𝑢𝐶,………..𝑢𝑡)= 𝑢𝐴 + 𝑢𝐵 + 𝑢𝐶 +,…..+ 𝑢𝑡/ t
Where 𝑢𝐴,𝑢𝐵,𝑢𝐶,………..𝑢𝑡 denote the raw scores corresponding to the percentile P in each of
