Why are there chances of change in the entrance exam system

It is believed that NTA can change the system of entrance exams like JEE Main, NEET UG, and CUET to be held in session 2026. The main reason behind this is the complaints about the normalization of marks in these entrance exams.

These entrance exams are computer-based and are conducted in several shifts. In such a situation, many times due to many reasons, including mistakes in the question paper of one of the two shifts, NTA applies the normalization formula for the students of one shift. Due to this, despite the marks of the students giving the exam in different shifts being the same, the marks of the students of one shift increase, which changes the result.

NTA has been receiving complaints about this for a long time. Because the entire admission process is based on the marks of the entrance exam. In such a situation, it is believed that effective steps like an entrance exam in one shift or a change in the formula of normalization can be taken by NTA.
