As the CUET UG 2025 results approach, one of the most discussed aspects among students and parents is the normalisation of scores and how it will affect cut-offs, merit ranks, and college admission chances in domain-specific subjects.

Since CUET UG is conducted in multiple shifts across different days, with varying difficulty levels, the National Testing Agency (NTA) uses a normalisation formula to ensure fairness in evaluating student performance.

🔹 What Is Score Normalisation?

Normalisation is a statistical process used to adjust scores across different shifts to account for varying difficulty levels. This ensures that no candidate is at a disadvantage if they received a tougher paper.

Key Point:
👉 Final admission cut-offs and merit rankings are based on normalised percentile scores, not raw marks.

🔹 Impact on Cut-Offs and Rank Lists

✅ Even if two students score the same raw marks in different shifts, their normalised percentile scores may differ depending on the relative difficulty level.

✅ Top universities like Delhi University, BHU, and JNU will prepare their rank lists and admission cut-offs based solely on percentile scores, not raw scores.

✅ In domain-specific subjects like Mathematics, Political Science, Business Studies, etc., cut-offs may vary significantly depending on:

• Overall performance of candidates in that subject

• Shift-wise difficulty level

• Number of candidates opting for the subject

🔹 Tips for Students:

• Focus on your percentile score for each domain subject.

• Keep checking college-specific admission portals for cut-off announcements.

• For tie-breaking, universities may use criteria like:

  • Higher percentile in domain subject

  • Higher percentile in language/general test

  • Date of birth (older candidate preferred)
