How To Calculate CUET UG 2026 Score?
To calculate your CUET UG 2026 score, follow the official marking scheme. For every correct answer, you will be awarded 5 marks, while 1 mark will be deducted for each incorrect response. No marks will be given for questions left unanswered or marked for review.
If more than one option is correct, candidates who select any one of the correct options will receive 5 marks. If all options are correct, all candidates who attempted the question will be awarded 5 marks. If a question is found to be incorrect or is dropped from the paper, 5 marks will be given to every candidate who attempted it. Your final score is calculated by adding all the marks for correct answers and subtracting the total negative marks for incorrect responses.
