What is CUET Normalisation 2027?
NTA stated a technique called the "equi-percentile method''. According to NTA,'' In this method, percentile for each candidate is calculated using the raw marks of the candidate as compared to the raw marks of others in the same session. This is done for every session across multiple days for the same subject. These percentiles are then equated and converted into normalised marks. For sessions with a smaller number of candidates, these are clubbed with bigger sessions.''

How are CUET UG Normalised Marks Calculated?
As mentioned above, the equi-percentile method is used for all candidates who appeared in different CUET sessions for the same subject to make comparisons across sessions. Here are the different steps involved in calculating normalised marks.
Step 1: Calculation of the percentiles of students in each shift using raw marks of multiple shifts
To find the percentile, first the percentile of each group of students is calculated using the raw marks they have scored in each shift.
Step 2: Percentiles are arranged in descending order
In the second step, these percentiles are arranged in descending order by ranking the students' raw marks for each shift.
- P denotes percentile
- Stu denotes sudent
- RM denotes Raw Marks
Step 3: Linear interpolation

Check the notice before you rely on it. You must qualify JEE Main or CUET for UPTAC. A news report says only candidates with a valid JEE Main 2026 rank could register. The special rounds list CUET (UG) 2026 along with JEE Main. So CUET may help only in some rounds. JEE Main is the safe choice.
