Criteria for Assessment of Merit
Admission to the 5 year B.A.LL.B.[Hons.], B.Com.LL.B.[Hons.], B.B.A.LL.B.[Hons.]

and B.C.A.LL.B.[Hons.] Degree Courses are made on the basis of merit assessed on the
following criteria, as per the G.O.Ms.No.83 LAW (LS) DEPARTMENT dt.19.04.2007.

taken into account. The marks obtained by the students in the Plus Two examinations

35
NORMALISATION PROCESS
Since, the marks obtained by the candidates in the qualifying examination excluding
languages being taken into account and since the qualifying examinations are being
conducted by various Boards or Authority, the marks obtained by the candidates of various
Boards or Authority shall be equated by the marks obtained by the candidates in the same
subjects in the qualifying examination conducted by the State Board by adopting the method
of normalization. In this process the highest mark obtained by the students of various Boards
in each subject shall be equated to the highest marks obtained by the students of State Board in
that subject and the relative marks obtained by other students in the subject shall be
determined accordingly.
Illustration: If the highest marks secured by the student of State Board in Physics is 100 and
the highest mark secured by a student of any other Board in the same subject is 90, both the
highest marks will be considered to be equal to 100. If a student of the other Board secures 60
marks in Physics when the first mark in Physics in the same Board is 90, the 60 marks will be
considered to be equal to 66.66 marks as arrived at below:
{ 100 x 60
= 66.66%
