Where your GATE 2027 responses and the answer key appear, how to mark each MCQ, MSQ and NAT answer against the key, and how to add up your raw marks. From the GATE 2027 brochure.
How GATE 2027 takes MCQ, MSQ and NAT answers, every key on the official virtual calculator, why you type the number before the function, and the slips that cost NAT marks. With the official calculator, the mock test and a practice calculator.
The GATE 2027 marking scheme: 1 and 2-mark questions, negative marking of 1/3 and 2/3 on wrong MCQs only, no partial marks in MSQ. A fully worked score and when guessing pays.
Every JEE Main question, numericals included, carries +4 and -1, and all 75 are compulsory. Here's the current marking scheme, the two changes that shaped it (2022 and 2025), and what it means for how you practise.
