Scorecard breakdown — what each number means
Your scorecard will provide detailed information about your performance in the examination. This includes:
- Total Score: The sum of marks obtained in the written examination.
- Sectional Scores: Breakdown of scores in different sections of the exam.
- Interview Marks: Marks obtained during the interview phase, if applicable.
- Final Score: The overall score combining both written and interview marks.
Understanding these elements is crucial as they determine your eligibility for further stages in the recruitment process.
Percentile vs raw score
It's important to distinguish between your raw score and percentile score. Your raw score is the total marks you secured in the exam, while the percentile score indicates your performance relative to other candidates. For example, if you scored in the 90th percentile, it means you performed better than 90% of the test-takers. This percentile score is often used for ranking candidates in competitive examinations.
Normalisation method (if applicable)
If the KPSC applies a normalisation method, it will be mentioned in the official notification. Normalisation is typically used to adjust scores to account for variations in difficulty across different exam sessions. This ensures fairness in the scoring process, particularly when multiple sets of question papers are used. Always refer to the official notification for the most accurate information on this.
After the result — next steps
Once the results are out, successful candidates will need to prepare for the next steps:
- 1Counselling Process: Candidates who qualify will be invited for counselling based on their scores. Details regarding counselling will be provided on the KPSC website.

By following these steps, candidates can effectively navigate the post-result phase and increase their chances of securing a position as a Staff Nurse in Karnataka government hospitals.
