(v) Standardization of the marks of the subjects as per the clauses 9.7.4(b)(iii) & (iv) will be
effected under the supervision of the Authority concerned. The standardized mark YBG shall
be taken as it is obtained from the formula given in clause 9.7.4 (b) (iii) .The sum of the
standardized marks of three subjects Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry/Computer
Science/Biotechnology/ Biology as the case may be, shall be limited to three hundred.
(vi) The score obtained by the candidate in the Engineering Entrance Examination (Paper I &
Paper II put together) shall be computed out of 300, and added to the total standardized
marks of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry/Computer Science/Biotechnology/Biology as
the case may be, of the final year of the Qualifying Examination, computed out of 300, both
corrected to four places of decimals. The rank list for Engineering Courses shall be prepared
based on the total marks obtained out of an Index mark of 600, computed as above.
(vii) If any Board/Authority provides results by letter grades/CGPA/OGPA etc., the candidate
concerned shall have to submit the marks equivalent as required, from the Board/Authority
concerned, failing which the decision on standardization of marks shall be taken based on
the available information by the Committee of Statisticians constituted vide G.O.(Rt)
No.1907/11/H.Edn. dated.25.11.2011, which shall be final and binding on the applicant.
(viii) If any Board/Authority fails to provide data required for the process of standardization for any year, the mean and standard deviation available for the nearest year after the year of
passing of the candidate for the concerned Board/Authority shall be considered for
standardization of marks and such decision shall be final and binding on the applicant.
(ix) If any Board/Authority fails to provide data requested and required for the process of
standardization and the data for the nearest years after the year of passing of the candidate
are also not available, then the mean and standard deviation of CBSE for the respective
years, or in the absence of such information from CBSE, the mean and standard deviation of
CBSE available for the nearest year after the year of passing of the candidate shall be
considered for standardization of marks and such decision shall be final and binding on the
applicant.
(c) Rank list for admission to B. Arch Course will be prepared by giving equal weightage to the
score obtained in the ‘National Aptitude Test in Architecture’ (NATA) and to the
marks/grades obtained in the Qualifying Examination by the candidate (As per guidelines of
the Council of Architecture, India).
Marks obtained by the candidate in the National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) out of
200 will be added to the total marks/*grades secured by the candidate in the Qualifying
Examination computed out of 200. The Rank list will be prepared based on the total marks obtained out of 400, computed as above (* If grades are awarded to candidates in their
Qualifying Examination, it will be converted to equivalent marks for this purpose).
Candidates to be considered for inclusion in the rank list for allotment to B. Arch course in
all institutions including private Self-financing Colleges have to appear for ‘NATA’ and
secure minimum score as prescribed by COA. [Refer Clause 6.2.3 (b)]

For candidates who have taken Sanskrit as their second language in Higher Secondary or equivalent examination, additional 8 marks will be added to the total marks secured by them in the NEET-UG 2019 for the preparation of Ayurveda rank list. For others, the total marks in the NEET-UG 2019 alone will be considered.
(f) Resolution of tie while ranking:
(i) Engineering: In the case of a tie in the total marks computed for preparation of Engineering
rank, candidate with higher marks in Mathematics in the Entrance Examination will be
placed higher in the ranking. If the tie still exists, candidate with higher marks in Physics of
the Physics & Chemistry Paper in the Entrance Examination will be placed higher in the
ranking. If there is still a tie, candidate with higher standardized marks in Mathematics of
the final year of the qualifying examination will be placed higher in the ranking. If the tie
still persists, candidate with higher standardized marks in Physics of the final year of the
qualifying examination will be placed higher in the ranking. If there is still a tie, the age of
the candidate will be taken into account and the older will be placed higher in the ranking.
(ii) Architecture: In the case of a tie in the total marks computed out of 400 as described in
Clause 9.7.4 (c), candidates getting higher score in ‘NATA’ will be placed higher in the
