FAST-NU Aggregate Calculator
Calculate your FAST-NUCES merit. For computing and business programs the split is 10% Matric, 40% FSc and 50% NU test. Engineering programs are listed with a different split, available in the formula list above.

How many test marks do I need?
Fill in the marks above (except the entry test), enter the aggregate you want, and Calvo tells you the test score you need.
The formula
FAST-NU computing and business merit: Aggregate = (Matric ÷ total × 10) + (FSc ÷ total × 40) + (NU test ÷ 100 × 50). The NU test is scored out of 100.
| Part | Weightage | Marks used |
|---|---|---|
| Matric (SSC) | 10% | Total marks, e.g. 1100 |
| FSc (HSSC) | 40% | Total from your result card |
| NU test | 50% | Score out of 100 |
Worked example
Matric 950 of 1100 at 10%: 950 ÷ 1100 × 10 = 8.64. FSc 480 of 550 at 40%: 480 ÷ 550 × 40 = 34.91. NU test 70 of 100 at 50%: 70 ÷ 100 × 50 = 35.00. Aggregate = 8.64 + 34.91 + 35.00 = 78.55%.
Engineering programs
Some sources list FAST engineering programs with 17% Matric, 50% FSc and 33% test. Choose “FAST-NU (engineering)” in the formula list to use that split, and confirm it in the FAST prospectus for your program.
Important
FAST-NU may change program-wise weightages in a new admission cycle. This calculator gives an estimate. Weightages, and even which marks count, can change from one admission cycle to the next, so always confirm with the official prospectus or admission notice. The published merit list is final. You can edit the weightage and total marks in any row.
FAQ
What is the FAST-NU merit formula?
For computing and business programs: 10% Matric + 40% FSc + 50% NU test. Convert each to a percentage, multiply by its weightage and add them.
What is the NU test out of?
The NU test is scored out of 100. Enter 100 as the total. If you use an SAT or other accepted score, enter its own total marks.
Do all FAST programs use the same formula?
Not always. Computing and business use 10 / 40 / 50, while engineering is listed with 17 / 50 / 33. Check your program in the FAST prospectus.
How many test marks do I need for my target merit?
Enter your Matric and FSc marks, type your target aggregate in the second box and press the button.
Is the result my official merit?
No. It is an estimate. FAST-NU's published merit list is final.
