For awarding the grades, all the passed students, subject wise, are put in a rank order and awarded grades as follows :
A-1: Top 1/8th of the passed candidates
A-2: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
B-1: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
B-2: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
C-1: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
C-2: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
D-1: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
D-2: Next 1/8th of the passed candidates
E : Failed candidates
Hence candidates obtaining the same marks in two subjects will not necessarily get the same grade
