In the official notice, the NBEMS said it “has adopted the process which is currently being used by AIIMS-New Delhi for its various examinations conducted in more than one shift including but not limited to INI-CET, in preparation of result for NEET-PG 2024.”
The NBEMS further referred to the AIIMS Delhi notice dated January 20, 2023, wherein it has been mentioned that the “Percentile score is the Normalised Score for the examination.”
What is the Percentile Score?
As per the AIIMS Delhi notice, the Percentile Score is the percentage of candidates that have scored EQUAL TO OR BELOW (same or lower raw scores) in that particular Percentile in that examination.
In other words, the topper (highest score) of each group (shift) will get the same Percentile of 100, which is desirable. The marks obtained between the highest and lowest scores are converted to appropriate Percentiles.
Also, the Percentile Scores will be calculated to 7 decimal places to avoid the bunching effect and reduce ties, the notice stated.

Meanwhile, the lowest score would have a percentile depending on the total number of candidates who have taken the examination.

Apart from citing issues concerning travel arrangements to the allocated seats, the petitioners had also sought disclosure of the normalisation formula of the four sets of question papers to candidates to keep any possibility of arbitrariness in the process at bay.
