How to Calculate Your Tier 1 Marks?

Once you download your response sheet, you can calculate your marks as long as you need to know the marking scheme. Below, we have mentioned the Tier 1 marking scheme and formula that will help you calculate your Tier 1 marks.

  • Correct Answer: +2 Marks
  • Wrong Answer: -0.50 Marks
  • Unattempted: 0 Marks

Formula:

(Total Correct × 2) – (Total Wrong × 0.50) = Your Raw Score

Example: If you attempted 80 questions, got 70 correct and 10 wrong:

(70 × 2) - (10 × 0.50) = 140 - 5 = 135 Marks.

The facility to challenge the provisional answer key was open from October 16 to October 21, 2025. Candidates could raise objections by paying ₹50 per question.

  • Current Status: The objection window is now CLOSED.
