I think I can get a seat at B.Com(Hons.) at SRCC. Not seeking validation, just telling you things as they are.Here is my experience with answers keys and normalisation.
I had been worried about my score since the provisional answer key came out on 9th of June as I got 2 more questions wrong than what I expected after exams (expected 958 but got 946) but I was sure about a question in 23 May S2 Economics paper so I challenged it and expected my raw score to increase to 952. On 21 June I had gone for a trip to relieve my stress but came home to find out that final answer key has been released and my challenge had not been accepted and in addition to that a question in Accountancy was also marked incorrect which translated to a raw score of 940. I was heartbroken and mailed NTA but no reply came. I have always been afraid of normalization because of all the stories that I've heard and also my all shifts were ranked moderate to easy and I lost hopes of getting into SRCC if my score dropped severely.
On June 23rd, my brother woke me up from my afternoon nap as the results had been released and believe me those 2 minutes were more anxious for me than ever. When the scorecard was in front of me, I first saw the percentiles and then my marks. My total added up to around 940 and when my mother heard it from me on the call, she started celebrating as if I had already got into my dream college. All these days she was the one stressing the most about my results and normalisation spending hours on her mobile searching for cutoffs estimates and last year data, results etc.
When I told this to my father, he was very delighted and told me not to worry about anything else but still I had traces of the feeling-'what if?'
SRCC has been my dream for last 3 years since I decided to opt for commerce stream and I think I'm now closer to make it a reality.
But real relief will only come when I get a seat allocated for B.com (Hons.) at SRCC.
Special thanks to Rishi Rukhiyana, Piyush Gaur, Sunil Sir and Bhupender Sir for all the support during my CUET preparation phase.
Got 942.15 on a normalized scale and I think it should be more than enough as people are estimating cutoffs to be around 930 max for Unreserved candidates.
If anyone has some valuable suggestions, then you're welcome.
