GATE Score Calculation
GATE Score Calculation
GATE Score is computed based on actual raw scores for papers conducted in a single session. For papers conducted in multiple sessions, the raw marks obtained by candidates in different sessions are converted into normalized scores for GATE score calculation.
Is GATE score out of 1000?
Yes, the normalized GATE score is out of 1000. The actual marks out of 100 are normalized to ensure uniformity in difficulty level across multiple shifts/ sessions. The formula used to calculate your GATE score out of 1000 is provided in the article below.
GATE Score Calculation: Normalization of Marks for Multiple Session Papers
This year, only GATE CE paper is scheduled in two sessions on Feb 12, 2023. To ensure that the variation in difficulty level across shifts does not put any candidate under disadvantage, the score normalization process is followed. The basic principle/ assumption behind applying this process is that “in all multi-session GATE papers, the distribution of abilities of candidates is the same across all the sessions’.
The below-mentioned formula is used for calculation the normalized score for multiple session GATE papers:
GATE Score Calculation for All Other Papers
For all papers conducted in a single session/ shift, the following formula is used for GATE score calculation:
GATE Score Vs Marks
GATE Score vs Marks
GATE Marks are calculated out of 100 as per the exam marking scheme. These are the actual raw scores obtained by the candidate in the exam. Check GATE 2023 Marking Scheme
GATE scores on the other hand are the normalized marks calculated by IIT Kanpur out of 1000. This is to ensure that no student is at a disadvantage based on the exam difficulty level across days and shifts.
Given below is the GATE score vs marks analysis of toppers (AIR 1) based on previous year GATE results.
