Frequently asked questions

How are SSC CHSL Tier 1 marks calculated?

SSC CHSL Tier 1 gives +2 for a correct answer, -0.5 for a wrong one, 0 for a question left unattempted. Score = (correct x 2) - (wrong x 0.5). The paper has 100 questions for 200 marks.

What is the negative marking in SSC CHSL Tier 1?

Each wrong answer costs 0.5 marks. An unattempted question costs nothing.

If I attempt 70 and get 56 right, what is my score?

56 x 2 = 112, minus 14 x 0.5 = 7, so 105 out of 200.

Should I guess when unsure?

One right answer cancels 4 wrong ones. A blind guess among four options is worth 0.13 marks on average, so it is slightly positive; after ruling out two options a guess is worth 0.75.

Does this calculator predict my percentile or cut-off?

No. It computes your raw score from the official marking scheme. Percentiles and cut-offs depend on how everyone else scored, which only the conducting body publishes.
