How to Calculate Marks Using RPSC 2nd Grade Answer Key?

The RPSC 2nd Grade examination adheres to a standardized marking scheme across both papers:

• +2 marks for every correct answer
• -1/3rd mark (0.33) for every incorrect answer
• Full marks to all candidates for any question marked with an asterisk (*) in the official key — this typically happens when a question is later dropped or found ambiguous
• Paper 1 (General Knowledge): 100 questions, 200 marks, 2 hours
• Paper 2 (Subject-Specific): 150 questions, 300 marks, 2 hours 30 minutes

Example: If a candidate attempts 120 questions in Paper 2, securing 100 correct and 20 incorrect answers:

Score = (100 × 2) − (20 × 0.33) = 200 − 6.6 = 193.4 marks
