What is a JEE Mains Marks Calculator from Response Sheet?
JEE Main is scored by NTA using a fixed marking scheme: +4 for each correct answer, -1 for each wrong answer and 0 for unattempted questions. Your response sheet shows the option you chose for every question, so matching it against the official provisional answer key gives you the correct and wrong counts.
Total marks = (Correct x 4) – (Wrong x 1), with a maximum of 300. Accuracy = Correct / Attempted x 100. For example, 45 correct and 15 wrong gives 180 – 15 = 165 marks.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I count correct answers from the response sheet?
For each question, compare the option ID you chose with the correct option ID in the provisional answer key. If they match it is correct; if you attempted and they differ, it is wrong.
Is there negative marking for numerical questions?
In recent JEE Main sessions, the published scheme applies -1 for wrong answers including numerical-type questions. Always check the information bulletin of your session.
My score differs after the final key – why?
NTA sometimes drops questions or accepts more than one option after challenges. Marks are then adjusted, so the final score can change slightly from your response-sheet estimate.
Can this predict my percentile?
No. Percentile depends on all candidates in your session and is calculated by NTA normalisation. This tool only gives your raw marks out of 300.
