SCORING PROCESS :
The Answer to each question in the ‘drawing’ paper will be examined by a panel of three examiners independently and the marks are averaged. It may be further subject to moderation.
During the computer based test, with adaptive testing, an examinee is administered a set of questions with a difficulty level that is specifically designed to match the examinee’s ability level. The mathematical process for calculating a score in this situation incorporates the statistical properties of the questions, the examinee’s performance on the questions, and the number of questions that are answered.

HOW THE SECTIONS OF THE TEST ARE SCORED :
Drawing Section :
The primary emphasis in scoring the drawing section is on the candidate’s drawing, imagination and observation skills. The candidate’s sense of proportion & perspective is also evaluated together with sense for colour and composition.
Aesthetic Sensitivity Section :
** The candidate’s score will depend on his / her performance on the questions given and on the number of questions answered in the time allotted.
This section is computer adaptive, meaning that the computer selects questions based on the candidate’s performance on preceding questions (When correct answer is given, next question will be of higher difficulty level whereas, if wrong answer is given next question is of lower difficulty level) and on the requirements of the test design. Test design factors that influence which questions are presented to the candidate include:
** The statistical characteristics (including difficulty level) of the questions already answered.
** The required variety of question types.
** The appropriate coverage of content.
** The final score depends on average difficulty level of all questions and of those questions answered correctly. E.g. person with correct answer for less number of questions of higher difficulty level may score higher marks than someone who answers more number of questions correctly but of lower difficulty level.
** Time allotted to answer the question is 90 seconds. The time remaining to answer the question is displayed on the screen. The “per second” countdown begins 30 seconds before the allotted time for that question ends. In case no answer is offered till the time ends, the question is skipped and next question appears.
** There is no Negative marking in this test.
NO REVALUATION IS POSSIBLE FOR EITHER OF THE TESTS.

SCORE CARD / MARK LIST :
** The score cards will be available on NATA website in e-format.
** Usually, the score cards will be posted on the website on the fourth working day after the test.
** The candidate, after fourth day may check his score directly from website giving his / her candidate ID.
