Why Should You Calculate Merit Before Applying?

Many applicants are rejected because:

• They ignore proximity advantage
• They select wrong category

Using the PSRP Phase 3 Merit Calculator ensures:

• Accurate self-assessment
• Better category selection
• Improved application preparation
• Reduced rejection risk

Special Feature: Young Entrepreneur Group Average Logic

One of the most important features of this calculator is:

👉 It calculates average experience of all three members.

This is critical because PSRP scoring for Young Group is based on average experience, not only the lead applicant.

Most applicants make mistakes here.

This tool eliminates that risk.

For Ed-Tech, Educational Chain & NGO

The calculator verifies minimum operational eligibility.

However, full scoring for these categories requires:

• Financial documentation
• Presentation evaluation
• District coverage
• Subscriber data
• Government MoUs

Final merit for these categories is subject to official committee evaluation.
