Kindly note that a candidate can appear for a maximum of only two tests in SNAP 2021.
If a candidate appears for two tests, the higher score will be considered for the final percentile calculation and there will be no normalization. A rigorous process that has been statistically tested will be administered to ensure that unique types of questions are framed under a specific topic across the question papers. The normal spread will ensure that there is no unfair advantage to candidates who opt for any specific test / multiple tests. This will ensure normalization of the spread of questions across sections. Furthermore, the question papers will be normalized for the level of difficulty across all three sets.
