Calculation of Score Using WBJEE Answer Key

Calculation of Score Using WBJEE Answer Key 2023

Candidates can calculate their anticipated scores in the entrance test once they have downloaded WBJEE Answer Key 2023 and their OMR Sheet Response Image. However, since the pattern and scoring system of WBJEE is not completely uniform, it is advisable to first familiarize yourself with both of them. Given below is the section-wise distribution of questions, marks allotted and the different categories in which they are divided.

Category Total No. of Questions (Mathematics + Physics+ Chemistry) Marks for Each Correct Answer Marks for Each Incorrect Answer
Category 1 50+30+30 +1 -1/4
Category 2 15+5+5 +2 -1/2
Category 3 10+5+5 +2 No negative marking;
unattempted questions and a combination of correct & wrong responses is treated as incorrect and yields 0;
For partially correct response, marks awarded based on= 2 X (no. of correct options marked + total no. of correct options)

Now, all that candidates need to do is to calculate their scores for correct and incorrect scores separately for each category of questions and use the following formula to calculate their scores:

Total Scores= (A + B + C + D) – (a + b)

where,

A= Scores for Correct Attempts for Category 1
B= Scores for Correct Attempts for Category 2
C= Scores for Correct Attempts for Category 3
D= Scores for Partially Correct Attempts for Category 3
a= Scores for Incorrect Attempts for Category 1
b= Scores for Incorrect Attempts for Category 2
