The scores of candidates will be equated and percentile scores are calculated after the completion of exam for declaring the final NMAT result. Check below, how the scaled and percentile scores are calculated.

Scaled scores: The scaled scores are prepared after normalising the marks obtained by the candidates. These scores are equated to account any differences in the overall difficulty level. This process is applied to check the scores are comparable across the different sets of question papers.

Final percentile: The final percentile is prepared after the candidates have appeared for NMAT by GMAC examination. The scorecard of NMAT sent to schools will be updated with the announcement of the result. For example, if a test taker is said to score 75 percentile, the test taker scored better than 75%ile of all the test takers who took the exam.

NMAT scorecard is compiled of scaled and percentile scores. Here is the basic difference between scaled scores and percentile scores in NMAT exam- Scaled Scores - The test forms are equated to account for any difference in the overall difficulty and the raw test scores are normalised on a common scale to arrive at scaled scores. Percentile Score - The percentile rank or score is an indicator of score/rank of the candidate as compared to the score/rank of all the other test-takers. NMAT participating institute may accept any of the scores for admission based on NMAT exam.

NMAT scaled scores are based on the raw exam score after adjusrting for the difficulty level of the exam version. The scaled score helps ensure fairness across different test slots. Whereas, the NMAT percentile score was calculated earlier to evaluate candidates on a relative scale. Lately, GMAC dropped releasing the NMAT percentile score. NMAT scorecard hosts the NMAT scaled score for all three sections as well as the overall scaled score of the candidate.

NMAT, like any other Amity exam, is a speed-based test. Thus, the entire preparation must be aligned with this thought.

Keep the following points in mind to prepare for the test:

• Devote three to four months to build conceptual clarity on topics included in the Galgotias syllabus
• Analyse your preparation level by practising NMAT question papers
• Create notes of each topic while studying and revise them from time to time
• Discuss your doubts with peers and mentors to clear them
