However, for papers in multi-sessions, normalized marks will be calculated corresponding to the raw marks obtained by a candidate.

As per the information brochure, the qualifying marks for the General category candidates is 25 marks (out of 100) in each subject or, µ+σ whichever is larger, where µ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation of marks of all the candidates who appeared in the paper.

Calculation of GATE 2019 Score for Multi-Session Papers

The calculation of the score for the multi-session papers is done on the basis of Normalization. Check the formula for Normalization in the image below.
