The examination format includes English and Hindi question papers without penalty for incorrect answers. The total number of questions is 100, each carrying a weightage of 0.975 marks. Candidates must choose one option out of five for each question.
Additional Time for Uncertain Answers
An exciting feature of the examination is an additional five minutes specifically for marking the fifth option in case a candidate needs clarification on the answer. This thoughtful approach aims to reduce the impact of uncertainty on candidates and ensure a fair evaluation. The total time allotted for the entire paper, including five extra minutes, is 105.
Penalty for Unanswered Questions
While there is no penalty for incorrect answers, candidates are reminded that if they choose not to mark any of the five options for a question, a deduction of 0.975 marks will be applied for each unanswered question. This emphasizes the importance of attempting all questions to maximize the chances of securing a higher score.
