• Calculate the total number of correct answers and as per that allocate the marks. And then calculate the overall marks.
• You have to tally the total negative marks for wrong attempts. (Only Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs) will have negative markings. There will be no negative marking for NAT questions). You have to do the calculation:

1. MCQ Marks: Total marks (1 mark) + Total marks (2 marks)
2. Total marks (1 mark) = 1 x no. of correct attempts – 1/3 x no. of wrong attempts
3. Total marks (2 marks) = 2 x number of correct attempts – 2/3 x number of wrong attempts
4. NAT Marks: Total marks (1 mark) + Total marks (2 marks)

Formula: Total marks = Total marks secured for correct response – Negative marks for wrong response.
