To calculate your IBPS Prelims exam marks:
1. Count Correct Answers: Adding the marks giving to each correct answer by multiplying the number of correct answers by the marks assigned to each question.
2. Subtract Negative Marks: Each question carries 1 mark and for every wrong answer, 0.25 mark is subtracted. Take the total negative marks, and then multiply your number of incorrect answers by 0.25 and subtract them.
3. Skip Unanswered Questions: As per the latest policy, no marks are given or subtracted for the part of the paper that has not been attempted by the student.
Formula:
Total Marks = (5 * 1) – (2 * 0.25)
