How to calculate CLAT score - Formula | How to calculate CLAT score - Example |
Total correct answers - (Total incorrect answers x 0.25) = Total score | 100 correct answers - (30 incorrect answers X 0.25) = 92.5 |
How to use CLAT Answer Key 2025 to Calculate Score?
With the help of the CLAT answer key and marking scheme, candidates can calculate their expected scores. According to the CLAT exam pattern, the exam has 120 questions. There is a negative marking for objective-type questions. 0.25 marks are deducted for incorrect answers. Check below for the marking scheme:
CLAT 2025 Exam Marking Scheme
For every correct answer, candidates will be awarded + 1 Marks while 0.25 marks would be deducted from each wrong answer. An unattempted question will fetch 0 marks that means neither any marks would be deducted nor any marks would be added.
Marks Calculation Process using CLAT Answer Key
CLAT Scores = Total numbers of Correct options*1 - Total number of incorrect responses*0.25
For example – If a student attempts 140 questions and correctly attempts 110 questions out of 150, then his/her marks would be calculated in this way.
- Question attempted: 150
- Correct Questions: 120
- Questions Left: 10
- Wrong questions: 30
That means the total marks would be: 120-(30*.25)+0 = 120-7.5 = 112.5 Marks
