CUET Total Marks Calculation

The CUET marks can be calculated in three ways. The CUET result 2026 can be prepared using the percentile and the NTA score. Let us know these things in detail -

CUET Raw Score: The raw score of the CUET examination can be calculated easily using the answer key. One must know the marking scheme for the examination. The CUET result does not show the raw score of the candidates.

CUET NTA Score: The NTA provides an NTA score instead of a raw score. As the CUET examination is conducted in different shifts, the NTA score is provided to compensate for the difficulty level of the shifts. The CUET NTA score is calculated using a different formula, which is mentioned in the CUET UG information brochure.

CUET Percentile: It is the normalised marks, which are calculated using a special formula. While calculating the percentile, one needs the number of candidates who appeared in the CUET examination.
