New Delhi: Hundreds of students appearing in various entrance exams end up with the same score. They are then separated by a tie-break method to identify their respective ranks.
Ahead of the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test – Undergraduate (NEET UG) 2024, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has revised the tie-breaking procedure, and has, in fact, reverted to the old system.
Following the change, NTA will allocate ranks based on the number of correct and incorrect answers, replacing the computerised draw of lots rule for breaking ties in exam results.
According to NTA, in case two or more candidates obtain same marks/equal percentile scores in NEET (UG) – 2024, the inter-se-merit will be determined as follows:
A) Candidate obtaining higher marks/percentile score in Biology (Botany and Zoology) in the test, followed by
B) Candidate obtaining higher marks/percentile score in Chemistry in the test, followed by
C) Candidate obtaining higher marks/percentile score in Physics in the test, followed by
D) Candidate with less proportion of the number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in all the subjects in the test, followed by
E) Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Biology (Botany and Zoology) in the test, followed by
F) Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Chemistry in the test, followed by
G) Candidate with less proportion of a number of attempted incorrect answers and correct answers in Physics in the test.
NEET UG 2024 will be held on May 5 from 2 pm to 5.20 pm. Results for the medical entrance exam will be announced on June 14.
NTA opened the correction window for NEET UG 2024 on March 15. Candidates will be able to make changes in their application forms from March 18-20.
