The score of the candidates is calculated to the normalized scores. The score will be converted into a standardized score which is obtained by the candidate in a sub-section of MICAT. The normalization of the scores will be completed using the appropriate statistical methods by considering scores of all qualifying candidates up to the stage applicable to the candidate. And this will be done for each sub-section separately. The normalization of the score will also be done for the total MICAT I and MICAT II score by using the appropriate statistical methods.
