How to evaluate NEET PG 2024 Marks?
As per the information shared by the medical board, the NEET PG 2024 results will be prepared using the normalization method similar to the one adopted by the AIIMS, New Delhi. This method is also used for various medical entrance exams of AIIMS including INICET.
NEET PG 2024 marks will be normalized and converted into percentile scores. A percentile score indicates the percentage of the candidates who have scored equal to or less than the specific percentile in the exam. The percentile score will be calculated up to seven decimal places to avoid the bunching effect and reduce ties between two candidates.
As per the AIIMS normalization document, 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'.

In this method of scoring, the highest score in each paper will be the 100 Percentile indicating that 100% of candidates have scored equal to or lesser than the highest scorer/ topper for that shift. For example, in Shift 1, if the highest score is 80%; in Shift 2, if the highest score is 82%; in Shift 3, if the highest score is 78%; and in shift 4, if the highest score is 79%, all the highest scores would be normalized to 100 Percentile for their respective group/shift.
