It will give them multiple opportunities to improve their score, if they fail to do their best in the first attempt, without wasting a whole academic year.
In the first attempt, they will get a first-hand experience of taking an exam and will become of their mistakes, which they can correct in the next attempt.
It will reduce the chances of dropping a year, and droppers won't have to waste a full year.

Each student’s best of the 2021 NTA Scores will be considered for preparation of the merit list/ranking.
