What is NTA Score?
The NTA Score is a normalized score, not the actual marks obtained. It indicates your relative performance compared to other candidates who appeared in the same session.
Formula
NTA Score = (Total candidates with equal or lower raw score ÷ Total candidates in the session) × 100
This ensures fairness across multiple exam shifts. If a student appeared in both sessions (January and April), the best of the two NTA scores will be considered for final ranking.
