NTA Scores Based On Relative Performance

According to National Testing Agency (NTA) officials, NTA scores are not the same as the percentage of marks obtained but normalised scores. NTA scores are normalised scores across multi-session papers and are based on the relative performance of all those who appeared for the examination in one session, a senior official explained. The marks obtained are converted into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees, the official added.

Based on the results of JEE (Main) Paper 1 and Paper 2, the candidates will be shortlisted to appear for JEE (Advanced), which is a one-stop exam for admission to the 23 premier Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs).

Results of 110 candidates withheld

The results of 110 candidates have been withheld as they were found using unfair means, including forged documents, the National Testing Agency said. In Session 1, the NTA scores of 39 candidates were not declared as they were found to have indulged in unfair means practices. During Session 2, a total of 110 candidates were similarly found to be involved in unfair means including forgery of any document related to examination, and consequently, their results have not been declared, the agency said.

In addition to this, the results of 23 candidates have been withheld due to discrepancies in their photographs, biometric details or other personal information for identity verification. These candidates have been asked to provide valid proof of their photographs duly attested by a Gazetted officer to NTA within a specified date for their results to be declared.

What are the next steps for candidates?

Candidates can log in to jeemain.nta.nic.in using their application number and date of birth to view their results and download their scorecards. The NTA will issue results for Paper 2A (B.Arch.) and 2B (B.Planning) separately.
