AP ICET 2024 Normalisation Process: Know How to Calculate AP ICET Score?

AP ICET 2024 normalization process is adopted to eliminate any variation in the difficulty level of the various AP ICET exam sessions conducted. Authorities ensure that all session question papers are of same standard to avoid any variations. AP ICET 2024 exam was held on May 06 in offline mode.

AP ICET Normalization Process

AP ICET 2024 exam was held in two slots based on the same exam pattern, and syllabus for the candidates having the same eligibility criteria. The question papers for each session will be different leading to the possibility of variation in the difficulty level of the AP ICET question papers. To eliminate such variation AP ICET normalization process is adopted. AP ICET 2024 exam was scheduled to be held on May 06 in two slots.

AP ICET results 2024 cum rank card has been released. On the basis of the scores obtained and normalisation process, ranks will be allotted to the candidates. Candidates will be alloted college on the basis of the rank obtained during the AP ICET 2024 counselling process.

What is Normalization?

AP ICET normalization process is a process for ensuring candidates are neither disadvantaged or advantaged as per the difficulty level of the examination conducted in multiple sessions. The normalization process is based on a simple process that is being implemented in other state/national level entrance examinations for admission to undergraduate or postgraduate courses. Normalization process ranks all the students who will appear for the exam across all sessions on a comparative scale.

In any normalization process the marks of the easier session may be reduced marginally and the marks of the difficult session may be increased marginally depending upon the average performance in each session. In case there is no much difference in the average of the two sessions then there won’t be much difference in the normalization marks.

AP ICET Normalization Process

The aim of the AP ICET normalization process is to justify the candidates who appeared for the difficult session to an easier session. The task is to rationalize and rank the candidates based on the global performance. The method of the normalization has been adopted by national-level entrance examinations such as CAT, GATE, JEE (Main) etc. The committee has decided to use the following normalization process:

• SMS: (Average Standard Deviation) of the session in which the candidate belongs to
• GMS: (Average Standard Deviation) of all the candidates across all the sessions altogether
• Top Average Session: Average marks of the top 0.1% of the candidates in the session in which the candidate belongs to
• Top Average Global: Average marks of the top 0.1% of all the students across all the sessions together.

AP ICET Normalization: Important Note

• For the candidates for whom there is no qualifying cutoff in AP ICET 2024 exam, if the marks in the entrance exam go negative after normalization, the total marks will be treated as zero and the ranks will be assigned based on those marks. If tie persists, the AP ICET normalization process will be considered for breaking the tie.
• The following is based on sample data to explain the normalization process. The data is based on an almost equal number of candidates in both sessions. The normalization is shown subject wise so that the students get a benefit based on subject wise performance rather than the entire paper in a session.
• Averages and Standard Deviations in a particular session and averages of top 0.1% candidates of a particular session, Global Average and Standard Deviations of all sessions together, Averages of top 0.1% candidates in all sessions is given in Table 1. Example data of normalized marks is shown in Table 2 to Table 4.

AP ICET Merit List: Preparation & Assigning of Rank

• Candidates who will have scored 25% of marks (50 out of 200) and SC/ST candidates for whom qualifying marks are not prescribed, shall be assigned rank in the order of marks obtained in AP ICET exam.

  • Considering the marks scored in Section A
  • If the tie persists, marks obtained by the candidate in Section B will be considered
  • If the tie still persists, it will be resolved by taking the candidate's age into consideration and giving the older one priority.
• The ranks obtained in AP ICET exam will be valid for the particular year only for admissions into the various universities constituent and affiliated colleges in the State of Andhra Pradesh.
• The AP ICET rank obtained with the benefit of relaxation of minimum qualifying marks by any candidate, claiming to belong to SC/ST category, will be cancelled in case the claim is found to be invalid at any point of time
