DU JAT 2022 Results
DU JAT 2022 is expected to be conducted in the first week of August. The entrance exam will be conducted in two slots on a single day. When examinations are conducted in different sessions, the question of maintaining uniformity among the different sets of question papers comes to the fore. To ensure that no candidate is at a disadvantage or benefits from this system, Delhi University has introduced the DU JAT normalisation process to calculate the scores of candidates. Under this process, the candidate’s performance is assessed based on common parameters to arrive at a normalised score. Based on this score, the rank of a candidate is decided In this article, we have simplified the process of DU JAT normalisation:
What is DU JAT normalisation process?
Large number of candidates appear for DU JAT exam conducted in two shifts across several days. The question papers of each shift are different from the other. As such, there are slight differences in the difficulty level of each shift. To ensure that the comparison of marks is fair, the score of candidates are normalized. The normalisation process is followed by the conducting authority where the exam is held in more than one session or dates.
How DU JAT normalisation works?
The marks obtained by candidates in each section - Quantitative Ability, Reasoning and Analytical Ability, General English, Business and General Awareness will be summed up to arrive at the raw scores. The score thus obtained will be normalised using the equi-percentile method.
