RTI reply says that the Commission doesn't adopt Normalization! Source - Qmaths
This year was my 3rd atempt at CGL. I missed 2015 by just 0.25 marks and this year too by few marks. I had a discrepancy of around 9 marks in the total after tier2 which I chalked off to Normalization. During Doc Verification (2015 &2016), I came to know that other candidates also had a +/- of around 7 marks (Note it wasn't just deduction but an advantage too).
I do not understand if Commission doesn't adopt Normalization, then
A. How do you explain the discrepancy in the total?
B. How do you level the difficulty in papers for various slots?
anybody read: "Recruitment of Selection Post Examination (Phase-V), 2017" notice on ssc.nic.in. It says Phase V, is it related to guys who were selected in SSC CGL 2016 ?
