In Section B, candidates have to attempt any five questions out of 10. There will be no negative marking for Section B.

- Marking Scheme for MCQs : Correct Answer or the best Answer (+4), Incorrect Answer (-1), Unanswered / Marked for Review (0)
- Marking Scheme for questions for which answer is a Numerical value : Correct Answer or the best Answer (+4), Incorrect Answer (0), Unanswered / Marked for Review (0)
- While the MCQs will have negative marking in cases where candidate marks a wrong answer, there is no negative marking for the other questions.
- In continuance to the changes, the agency has also notified changes in tie-resolving norms. This year onwards, having lesser number of negative responses in the paper can fetch a candidate good rank in case there is a tie. Other criteria like mathematics score, physics score, chemistry score will be followed, in the same order, along with the age criteria. In case all the above rules fail to resolve the tie, candidate older in age would be given higher rank.
