How to Calculate Scores Using COMEDK UGET Answer Key 2026
COMEDK UGET follows a simple marking scheme, which makes it easy for candidates to calculate their approximate score using the provisional answer key.
Basic marking scheme (as per the COMEDK information brochure):
-
Each correct answer carries 1 mark
-
There is no negative marking for wrong answers
-
Unattempted questions carry 0 marks
To calculate your probable score:
-
Count the total number of correct responses using the official answer key.
-
Multiply the number of correct answers by 1.
-
Since there is no negative marking, you do not deduct marks for incorrect responses.
For example, if a candidate has 120 correct answers out of 180 questions, their estimated score will be 120 marks.
