How to Calculate Your Probable Score Using the Answer Key?
The final answer key helps candidates estimate their scores before the official result is announced. Use the marking scheme provided by ACPC to calculate your probable score.
Gujarat PGCET Marking Scheme
Each correct answer is awarded one mark in the objective paper. There is no negative marking for incorrect or unattempted questions. The total score is the sum of all correct answers. The weightage of sections may differ across ME, MTech, MPharm, and MPlan papers. Candidates should compare their answers with the answer key and count the correct ones. This estimated score can assist in making choices during counseling.
Why the Final Answer Key is Important for Admission
The final answer key is the main document used for calculating scores. Once it is released, candidates cannot challenge it further. It replaces the earlier provisional key that was released after the exam. All objections raised during the provisional key period have been reviewed by an expert panel. Accepted changes have already been incorporated into the final key. ACPC will use this key to prepare the result and the merit list.
