Find your exact net score after negative marking. Pick your exam or set a custom scheme, then enter your correct and wrong answers.
Negative marking penalises wrong answers to discourage random guessing. Unattempted questions are never penalised — only wrong answers cost you marks. This is why smart attempt strategy matters as much as knowledge.
| Exam | Per Correct | Penalty per Wrong |
|---|---|---|
| SSC CGL / CHSL (Tier 1) | +2 (CGL), +2 (CHSL) | 0.50 |
| RRB NTPC / Group D | +1 | 1/3 (0.33) |
| IBPS / SBI (Bank PO, Clerk) | +1 | 0.25 |
| UPSC Prelims (GS Paper) | +2 | 0.66 |
| NEET | +4 | 1 |
Always confirm the exact marking scheme in your exam's official notification — schemes change between years and tiers.
Net score = (correct × marks per Q) − (wrong × penalty). E.g. with +1 and 0.25 penalty, 80 correct and 20 wrong = 80 − 5 = 75.
SSC CGL/CHSL Tier 1 deduct 0.50 per wrong answer. Tier 2 differs by section — check the notification.
