The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has instituted a novel approach to the normalization of scores in its examinations, aiming for greater fairness in candidate evaluations.
Previously relying on top and average scores, SSC now employs the equipercentile method, focusing on shifting candidates' percentile ranks to determine relative performance. This innovative method aims to balance out differences in examination difficulty across different shifts.
