Marking scheme of UPSC Prelims 2023 GS Paper 1 to calculate your marks from the answer key<\/strong><\/p>\n

Total Number of Questions:<\/strong> The GS Paper 1 consists of 100 questions.<\/p>\n

Total Marks:<\/strong> Each question carries 2 marks, making the paper worth a total of 200 marks.<\/p>\n

Negative Marking:<\/strong> There is a negative marking system in place for incorrect answers. For every wrong answer, one-third (0.66) of the marks assigned to that question will be deducted as a penalty.<\/p>\n

Unattempted Questions:<\/strong> If a candidate leaves a question unanswered or unattempted, no marks will be deducted for that question.<\/p>\n

Multiple Answers:<\/strong> If a candidate marks more than one answer for a single question, it will be treated as a ‘wrong answer’, even if one of the marked options is correct. The negative marking penalty will be applied in such cases.<\/p>\n

Therefore, you can calculate your marks by following formula:<\/p>\n

Total Marks = (Number of Correct Answers * Marks per Correct Answer) – (Number of Incorrect Answers * Negative Marks per Incorrect Answer)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
