The question papers for post graduate level exams will be in English only.
UPCET MARKING SCHEME
1. For each correct Answer, 4 marks will be awarded.
2. No Negative marking for wrong answers.
3. On examining of the representations by the subject experts, if it is found that more than one option are correct, then marks will be awarded to all those candidates who have attempted any one of the correct options.
4. If all options are found to be correct – Full marks to be awarded to all students, who have attempted the question.
5. If none of the options is correct/ Question is found to be wrong – All students who attempted the question would be awarded full marks.
Normalisation of Marks
Normalisation procedure based on Percentile Score will be used for ensuring that candidates are neither benefitted nor disadvantaged due to the difficulty level of the examination.
Percentile Scores: Percentile scores are scores based on the relative performance of all those who appear for the examination. Basically, the marks obtained are transformed into a scale ranging from 100 to 0 for each session of examinees.
The Percentile score of a Candidate is calculated as follows :-
100 X Number of candidates appeared in the ‘Session’ with raw score EQUAL TO OR LESS than the candidate
Total number of the candidates appeared in the ’Session’
Preparation of Results for each Session:
The examination results for each session would be prepared in the form of
1. Raw Scores
2. Percentiles Scores of Total raw scores
3. The Percentiles would be calculated for each candidate in the Session as follows:
Let TP1 be the Percentile Scores of Total Raw Score of that candidate:
Total Percentile (TP1) :
