How to Calculate NUST Aggregate 2026?
The National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) calculates merit based on three components for its Engineering and Computing programs. The most significant part is the **NET (NUST Entrance Test)**, which carries 75% of the total weightage.
NUST Merit Weightage Formula
- NET Score: 75%
- FSc (HSSC) Part 1 or Full: 15%
- Matric (SSC): 10%
Example Calculation
If you score **150/200** in NET, **90%** in FSc, and **95%** in Matric:
`Aggregate = (150/200 * 75) + (90/100 * 15) + (95/100 * 10)`
`Aggregate = 56.25 + 13.5 + 9.5 = 79.25%`
