Hii Ifla,
Total marks - 360

Total question - 90

Marking system +4 for right answer you marked -1 for wrong marked answer.

Section wise

Math- 30 question 120 marks.

Physics- 30 question 120 marks.

Chemistry- 30 question 120 marks

Total time- 180 min (3hr)

It means that for 4 wrong questions, 4 marks would be deducted...

Paper 1 is for 360 marks. 4 marks will be awarded for every correct answer. For any incorrect response 1 mark will be deducted. No marks will be given for unattempted questions. Part 2 is for 390 marks. Here also 4 marks will be awarded for every correct answer. For any incorrect response 1 mark will be deducted. No marks will be given for unattempted questions.

Hello Ifla,

The marking pattern in JEE mains is as follows:

4 marks for every correct answer and 1/4th of the marks of 1 question will be deducted for every wrong answer. So, you will lose 1 mark for every wrong answer.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reach out to us for further queries!
