The Questions from both the papers will be further classified into 3 categories depending upon number of correct options:

Negative Marking

• ¼ marks will be deducted in case the answer to the question from category 1 will be wrong.
• ½ marks will be deducted for an incorrect answer for a category 2 question.
• There will be no negative marking for category 3 questions.
• Not attempting the question will result in zero marks

Mode of answering in the examination

Questions are to be answered on specially designed optical machine- readable response (OMR) sheet, which will be evaluated by Optical Mark Recognition method. Thus, it is very important to follow the correct method of marking.

There will be four alternative answers for each question. Candidates will  indicate response to the questions by darkening the appropriate circle  completely with blue/black ball point pen.

Any other kind of marking e.g., filling the bubble incompletely, filling with pencil, cross mark, tick mark, dot mark, circular mark, over writing, scratching, erasing, white ink, marking outside the bubble etc. may lead  to wrong/partial/ambiguous reading of the response. WBJEEB will be, in no way, responsible for such eventuality.

Response marking cannot be edited/changed/erased/modified.
