Normalization of Scores for Mah CET (all india seats) - 06-02-2008, 09:53 AM

Hi,
Does anyone have any idea as to how normalization of scores of all india exams (CAT,XAT, etc.) is done for the 15% all india seats under CET ?
eg. will a 99.5 %tile in XAT or CAT have equal or more weightage than a 99.9%tile in MAT, considering the difficulty level and other aspects of the exams...

I am absolutely clueless about it and have no idea as to whom to ask for a clarification..
Thanx in advance

I think they have come up for the first time with this Normalisation...

So not many of us would be aware of this aspect.. They say "out of 200 marks", Now MAT is of 200 marks but CAT is of 300 marks and XAT is of 150 marks so don't know how would they normalise it...

Moreover whether they will consider marks or percentile is also not clear!!

Any light on this regard would be helpful!!

in addition to that, the fact is that how can they treat all these marks/percentiles from diff exams on the same platform
I mean cracking CAT/XAT is way tougher than MAT. The level of difficulty is poles apart.
They should atleast differentiate the marks attained in these exams.

This is my understanding of the CET equivalent scores. Please correct me if i have interpreted it wrongly.

Two facts rightaway:
1) They consider all exams CAT, JMET, XAT, MAT (Feb only) at the same level.
2) It is the percentile that is considered and not marks.
So, a person getting 99.95 %ile in MAT is ranked above someone with 99.8 %ile in CAT/XAT/JMET.

The admission procedure that is followed is as follows:
1) OMS/Maharashtra state candidates applying for OMS seats apply through an All-India exam (i.e. CAT/XAT/MAT/JMET) score in terms of percentile.

2) MH-CET is conducted.
a)CET is mandatory for maharashtra state candidate applying for maharashtra seats (85% including home and other university)
b)Maharashtra students can apply for the OMS seats based on their All-India exam performance.
c)CET is not mandatory for OMS candidates. They can apply through one of the other national exam scores. (In this respect, a person applying through CAT/XAT/JMET is at an obvious disadvantage when compared to MAT)
d)If OMS students gives CET, they can apply on the better of the CET/MAT results (I don't know the procedure to get this done)

3) MH-CET results are declared and the score calculator is made available as given in one of the previous posts. This score calculator simply converts your percentile to an equivalent CET score. For Ex. 99.86 %ile is 135 marks as per 2007 score calculator. So, someone scoring 99.86 %ile will get a score of 135 marks

4) GD-PI is conducted. This is mandatory for all candidates aspiring to get admitted through CET irrespective of OMS/MH.

5) The overall score (CET + Work-Ex + Acadamics + GD/PI) will be used for the final merit list preparation.

But I do not understand the term "Normalization" used in the previous posts and the subject of this thread.

Just type in ur CA/XAT percentile and you will get the CET equivalent...If u type-in 99 (Suppose in CAT) u will get 145 CET equivalent.

Ami, you've explained it correctly.

Just to add to your point that the 'score calculator' is prepared on the relation of the CET scores and their equivalent percentiles.

A person who takes All India Exam is given the score equal to the least score among students who have got similar percentiles in CET.

For example, last year 99.86 percentile meant 135 marks because a person with 99.86 percentile in CET must have got either the score of 135 or more (maybe 136 or so).

This is what has happened at least till last yea and will probably continue this year too though I too don't understand this concept of 'normalization' said to be introduced this year.

Most probably true. But, I'm not too sure about this.
