Along with the Answer Key, the response sheet for the candidates has also been uploaded. Candidates should use both to cross-check their answers and calculate their probable score. To calculate the CGL Tier-I score, the candidates need to add and deduct marks as per the marking scheme. For a correct answer, candidates need to add 02 marks and since there is negative marking as well, you need to deduct 0.25 marks for an incorrect answer.

Number of correct answers * 2 – Number of incorrect answers * 0.5.
