A committee of experts on Thursday suggested deduction of an average five to seven marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects for ‘normalisation’ of the marks of the students, who passed II PU in 2021, to consider even their II PU marks along with the CET-2022 marks in the ratio of 50:50 for allotting CET ranks as was done in the case of students who passed II PU in 2022.
The report of the committee was submitted before a Division Bench, comprising acting Chief Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice S. Vishwajith Shetty, during the hearing on appeals filed by the government and the Karnataka Examination Authority (KEA).
The committee suggested a scientific formula for ‘normalisation’ of higher marks awarded to the students, who passed II PU in 2021 benefiting from the marks awarded by way of a special methodology in view of non conduct of annual exams due to COVID-19 last year.
