Hyderabad: M. Nikhil Harsha had scored 321 in the JEE Advanced, results for which were released last month, and he bagged the 745th rank. The results will once again spark a fierce debate on the normalisation process being adopted by the CBSE. None of the toppers from JEE Advanced figured in the ‘Top 10’ in the ranks published by the Board.
Eamcet engineering topper N. Pavan Kumar had secured the 9th highest marks in JEE Advanced, but failed to make it to the Top 10, and so did C. Sai Chetan who was ranked 10th in Eamcet and second in JEE Advanced. The normalisation process uses the percentile in the state boards and JEE Advanced. However, despite the comparative ease of scoring marks in the Intermediate exams in Telangana and AP, only three could make it the Top 10.
