How Percentiles & Cut-offs Are Calculated

NTA uses a normalization process to ensure fairness across multiple shifts and days. Percentiles are calculated based on the relative performance of all candidates who appeared in a particular session. This method prevents any disadvantage to students who appeared in a tougher shift.
