Ranking Policy 

1. Each candidate’s rank is determined by their score relative to others.
2. Criteria for ranking if multiple candidates score the same:
3. First, performance in Section D will be considered. Candidate with higher score in Section D will be ranked higher. If tied, Section C will be reviewed.
4. If the tie persists, the time taken to complete Sections D will be evaluated. Faster completion earns a higher rank. If tie persists, time taken to complete section C will be considered.
5. If a tie still persists, the candidate who finished the entire test quicker gets a higher rank.
6. If tie remains, those with matching scores share the same rank and the cash prize will be divided among them evenly.
7. The rank of a candidate will be displayed on the rank card. The rank card can be downloaded from the KIIT NMO website (olympiads.kiit.ac.in) after the results are announced.
8. The evaluation once done would be treated as final. Re-evaluation will not be done. As the evaluation is done automatically using a software (using answer keys), there is no scope of errors in evaluation.
9. The organizing team is under no obligation to disclose the individual marks scored by the candidates.
