How to Calculate Scores

• Although the official marking scheme for the preliminary exam is detailed in the original advertisement (No. 728/OSSC dated 02.03.2026), candidates can use the following general approach to calculate their approximate score:
• Identify the number of correct answers as per the provisional key.
• Multiply the number of correct answers by the marks allotted per question (typically 1 mark or as per the notification).
• If there is negative marking for wrong answers, deduct the applicable penalty per incorrect response.
• The resultant figure is your raw score. Note that the final score may vary after finalization of the answer key.
• Important: Always refer to the official notice for the exact marking scheme before calculating your score.

Important Instructions from Official Notice

• Objections are decided on merit; the number of candidates objecting to a question does not influence the outcome.
• If another candidate has already objected to a question and you have no new facts or arguments, you need not file a duplicate objection.
• Only objections registered through the designated online link will be considered. Queries via email, post, or phone will be ignored.
