How To Calculate NEET Score With NEET Paper 2020 and Answer Keys PDF?

Much before the official authorities of NEET declare the results, students are provided with the answer keys for NEET uploaded on the official website. Students must await the official declaration of results before coming to any conclusion in any case.

First, a provisional set of answer keys are released so that if there are any changes to be induced after challenging the answer keys, changes are made after reviewing by officials. Then, the final set of answer keys are released. Students can tally these answer keys with responses provided in their respective OMR sheets to find out their tentative NEET score. Provided below are steps that you can follow to calculate your tentative NEET score using the NEET paper 2020 and answer keys –

  • For each question you answered correctly, that is, when the answer key tallies, award 4 marks to that question
  • If you have answered a question incorrectly, mark it as -1. Deduct 1 mark
  • If you have marked more than one option, then deduct 1 mark
  • Do not award any mark to the question which you have not attempted

This way you can count the number of correct responses and multiply it by 4 (since each question carries 4 marks) and deduct the number of incorrect responses from this score to arrive at your final NEET score.
