Normalisation in Exam with different difficulty level
Sir , I appeared in SSC CGL 2017 , 9 the Aug 2017 . The exam was conducted from 5th Aug to 23 rd august 2017. There was a huge difference in the difficulty level of exams , some shifts were really tough and some really easy . SSC in a reply to a RTI has said that they don't use rationalisation . sir this is complete injustice to candidates who got their shifts difficult as the candidates who scored high marks in the easy shifts will increase the cut off . can we move the court asking SSC to either make Tier 1 qualifying only or to use rationalisation . Please guide asap sir
Thank you

Criteria of judging difficulty is getting it evaluated by different teachers who have vast knowledge in the field , secondly questions in difficult shift involved more calculations than others. Exam was a MCQ type , but sir I agree there is no malafide behind this , but then it is a sheer luck by chance if your shift falls in the easy slot . Does following normalization going to cost them anything , at least candidates will be assured of fair treatment . sir you yourself will agree that setting paper for 43 different shifts is not easy , and it is bound to happen that level of difficulty may vary . if Bank exams can follow normalisation then why can't SSC . setting 43 shift papers with same difficulty level is not possible , then why this unfair treatment to few candidates
