Hi aspirant,

Ntse has 2 stages.

Stage I: State level

Stage II: National level.

The making scheme for both is 1 mark for every correct answer and there is no negative marking. However, the overall score is counted as the no. Of students who answer the exam to the no. Of students qualifying.

200 is the maximum marks achievable and getting 177 has you a good chance of qualifying giving you approximately 87% which is really good but your rank will be determined by the total number of students and the total number of qualifying applicants.

Thank you.
