WBJEE Examination consists of 3 papers : i) Mathematics (100 marks), ii) Physics (75 marks) and Chemistry (75 marks).
In every subject, all questions will be Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ-type, with four options against each of the questions) and the answer(s) to each of the questions has to be marked on the OMR.
Questions will be of three categories, divided as per following table.
| Subject | Category 1 | Category 2 | Category 3 | Total Marks |
| Mathematics | 60 X 1 mark each | 15 X 2 marks each | 05 X 2 marks each | 100 |
| Physics | 45 X 1 mark each | 10 X 2 marks each | 05 X 2 marks each | 75 |
| Chemistry | 45 X 1 mark each | 10 X 2 marks each | 05 X 2 marks each | 75 |
Category 1
(a) Only one option is correct, correct response will yield one mark.
(b) For each incorrect response, 33.33% of full mark (1/3) would be deducted
(c) For more than one answer indicated against a particular question in
the OMR sheet; the said answer will be treated as incorrect response/answer.
Marks will be deducted on the basis of rule enumerated in Clause (b) above.
Category 2
(a) Only one option is correct, correct response will yield two marks.
(b) For each incorrect response, 33.33% of full marks (2/3) would be deducted
(c) For more than one answer indicated against a particular question in
the OMR sheet; the said answer will be treated as incorrect response/answer.
Marks will be deducted on the basis of rule enumerated in Clause (b) above.
Category 3
(a) More than one option may be correct and marking of all correct options
only will yield two marks.
(b) For any combination of answers containing one or more incorrect responses,
net mark awarded will be zero (0)
(c) For partially correct response without any incorrect marking:
Marks awarded = 2 X (no of correct responses) / (total no of correct options)
Mode of Answering
All questions will have to be answered on specially designed machine gradable answer sheets (OMR answer sheet). Answers are to be marked (Bubbled) using blue/ black ball point pen only on the ‘OMR answer sheet’.
N.B. It is to be noted carefully that the candidates must fill in as well as bubble in ALL the relevant information including the “Question Booklet No” at the indicated places on both OMR Answer Sheet and Attendance Sheet during examination.
Ranking methodology & Rules of Tie Breaking:
For WBJEE, the merit list for successful candidates in the Engineering category will be prepared by listing them in the descending order of the total marks scored by them. However, there may be ties and such ties will be broken by sequentially applying the following set of rules:
1. Less negative marks in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry taken together
2. More positive marks in Mathematics and Physics taken together
3. More positive marks in Mathematics and Chemistry taken together
4. Less negative marks in Mathematics and Physics taken together
5. Less negative marks in Mathematics and Chemistry taken together
6. More positive marks in Mathematics for only the 2 marks questions
7. More positive marks in Physics for only the 2 marks questions
8. More positive marks in Chemistry for only the 2 marks questions
9. Less negative marks in Mathematics for only the 2 marks questions
10. Less negative marks in Physics for only the 2 marks questions
11. Less negative marks in Chemistry for only the 2 marks questions
If after applying the 11 rules stated above there are still ties, same will be broken by the date of birth (DOB) of the concerned candidates; the older candidate will be given preference over the younger one.
