NUST Aggregate Calculator

Work out your NUST aggregate using the widely published weighting of 10% Matric, 15% FSc and 75% NET. Because the NET carries most of the weight, the calculator also shows the NET score you need for a target aggregate.

Your marks

Weights change from year to year. Check them in your university’s latest prospectus and edit them below if needed.

If your Part II result isn’t out yet, enter your Part I marks and total (for example out of 550).

Weights (%)

Shows the entry test marks you need to reach this aggregate, for example last year’s closing merit.

Result

Enter your Matric and FSc marks to see your aggregate.

How to use the NUST Aggregate Calculator

  1. Enter your Matric marks and your FSc (usually Part I) marks with their totals.
  2. Enter your NET score out of 200, or leave it empty and set a target aggregate.
  3. See your aggregate or the NET marks you need.

NUST aggregate formula

For engineering and computing programmes, NUST bases its merit mainly on the NUST Entry Test (NET). The weighting most widely published is:

PartWeight
Matric (SSC)10%
FSc / HSSC (usually Part I marks)15%
NET (out of 200)75%

Aggregate = (Matric % × 0.10) + (FSc % × 0.15) + (NET % × 0.75)

Worked example

Matric 980/1100 (89.09%), FSc Part I 480/550 (87.27%) and NET 140/200 (70%):

8.909 + 13.091 + 52.5 = 74.5%

The NET decides most of it

Because NET carries 75%, every NET mark out of 200 adds about 0.375 aggregate points. That's why NUST merit lists move so much with test performance, and why taking the NET more than once (when allowed) can help.

Eligibility

NUST typically requires at least 60% in both Matric and FSc to apply. Check the current admission notice for your programme.

Formulas and test totals change, sometimes every year. The weights here are the most widely published ones at the time of writing; always confirm them in the official prospectus or merit notice, and edit the weights in the calculator if they differ.

Frequently asked questions

What is the NUST aggregate formula?

The widely published NUST formula is 10% Matric, 15% FSc and 75% NET: aggregate = Matric % × 0.10 + FSc % × 0.15 + NET % × 0.75.

How much is one NET mark worth?

With NET out of 200 and a 75% weight, each NET mark adds about 0.375 points to your aggregate, much more than a Matric or FSc mark.

Which FSc marks does NUST use?

NUST usually calculates the aggregate with FSc Part I marks. Enter them with their total, for example out of 550.
