Marking Scheme – Paper-1 (Gujarati) & Paper-2 (English)
As per the Final Answer Key of Paper-1 (Gujarati Language) and Paper-2 (English Language), evaluation was done as follows:
- +1.000 mark for every correct answer
- −0.300 mark for every wrong answer, multiple-encoded answer, or blank answer
Note the unusual provision: a blank answer was penalised the same as a wrong one, which is why total scores across the merit list cluster relatively tightly.
