Dear Elam

In JEE Mains the rules is fixed and prescribed i.e for every correct answer you will be awarded with +4 marks and for wrong answer your-1 marks will be deducted. Whereas in Jee Advance it depends as ler the section for some sections it will be like +5 and -2 and for some section it will be like +3 and -2 whereas for a single section there will not be any negative marking. Overall, this marking scheme will may sometimes depend upon the conducting authorities of IIT-JEE also. So be prepared with that.
