The marks obtained are converted into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees. NTA score is not the same as the percentage of marks obtained.
The examination was conducted for the second time in 13 languages.
Starting this year, the exam will be conducted four times a year to offer flexibility to students and a chance to improve their scores.
While the first phase was conducted in February followed by the second and third phase in March and July, the final phase will be held this month.
