XAT is administered in a way where all candidate answer the same set of questions. It takes place at the same time and day across the nation. There is no question of normalization or ambiguity in scoring. You get a score based on how many questions you answer correctly and how many you score incorrectly. Simple arithmetic with sectional cutoffs. If you have done well, you'll know. If you haven't you'll still know. No complex calculations. No dependence on software.
5) The Test with a Difference
XAT as a test has been designed differently than most other management entrance tests. It is a test which tests you in way that ensures people from diverse fields, with different sets of skills do well. By its very nature, XAT encourages diversity. Apart from strong QA and English skills, XAT asks you to be good at subjective evaluation of situations, at General knowledge etc.
