NATA Merit List Help

If you’ve recently appeared for the NATA (National Aptitude Test in Architecture) and are waiting for the merit list, you’re not alone. Every year, thousands of architecture aspirants find themselves unsure about what the merit list means, how it’s prepared, and what steps to take next.

This is where Kubo Architecture Studio is your go-to advisor, assisting you in comprehending your score, deciphering the merit list, and strategizing your next step towards admission in the appropriate architecture college.


How to Read the NATA Merit List


The NATA Merit List is an official ranking drawn up by the Council of Architecture (COA) on the basis of your NATA score and your qualifying marks in 10+2 or an equivalent exam. This list is important in deciding your chances for admission to B.Arch (Bachelor of Architecture) courses in India.

If your name appears in the merit list, it indicates that you’ve successfully cleared the eligibility criteria and can apply for admission to architecture colleges. However, understanding how your position in the merit list affects your chances of admission can be confusing, which is why expert guidance matters.


How is the NATA Merit List Calculated?


The NATA Merit List is prepared on a weighted average of your NATA score and your 10+2 examination marks.

Here's the way it usually works:

  • 50% weightage is assigned to your NATA score

  • 50% weightage is assigned to your total marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics in your 10+2 examination


The total score is utilized to calculate your overall merit position.


If two candidates have the same total marks, the tie-breaking criteria are followed. The preference is generally given to:

  • More marks in the NATA examination

  • More marks in Maths in the qualifying exam

  • More total marks in the 10+2 examination

  • If still equal, the older candidate is given a higher rank


This process makes sure that there is a fair and transparent selection process for every candidate.


Important Points Regarding the NATA Merit List


  • The merit list is published online on the official website of NATA.

  • You must download and retain a copy of your merit rank for admission and counselling purposes.

  • There can be more than one round of counselling depending upon seat availability and your rank.

  • Only the candidates with valid NATA scores and minimum educational qualifications are deemed eligible.

  • The merit list is typically published soon after the final phase of NATA exams every year.


Knowing these facts keeps you ahead of the game in the admission process.
