How CUET UG Response Sheet Marks Are Calculated

The CUET UG scoring engine processes your recorded response sheet and the provisional answer key to evaluate subject scores:

Every correct response across Language, Domain Subjects, and the General Test adds +5 marks to your score, while every incorrect response deducts 1 mark (-1). Questions left blank or unattempted carry 0 marks. The total score is computed using the official formula: Total Marks = (Total Correct Answers × 5) - (Total Incorrect Answers × 1).
