Ok thanks for the information but I think there is a difference between Open Merit and Mixed Merit. In open merit successful candidates or the top scorers are selected regardless of their gender. But this is not open merit, it is the mixed one. The ten percent of the total seats in a Taulka of both male and female are termed as Mixed Merit. It has already been clarified by the NTS in one of the three notes below the result of JST. In other words, even in mixed merit there are separate seats for both male and female. Giving females an extra 20 marks won't affect the merit in this way. The reason behind giving extra marks to females could be trying to better the over-all result which is to be reported to the World Bank lastly. That's what I understand. What do you say dear Ali Mallah?
