Calculate Your Probable Score
The PTET 2026 exam contains 200 questions worth 600 marks, distributed equally across four sections. There is no negative marking â you receive marks only for correct answers.
Marking scheme:
- Correct answer: +3 marks
- Wrong or unattempted answer: 0 marks
For Sections A (Mental Ability), C (General Awareness), and D (Language Proficiency), the calculation is straightforward. Section B (Teaching Attitude & Aptitude) uses scaled marking: +3 for the most appropriate answer, +2 for the second best, +1 for marginally correct, and 0 for completely incorrect responses.
Example calculation for Sections A, C, D:
If you answered 150 questions correctly across these three sections, Score = 150 × 3 = 450 marks
Add your Section B scaled marks separately, then combine all four sections for your total estimated score.
| Correct Answers | Marks per Question | Estimated Score |
|---|---|---|
| 100 | 3 | 300 |
| 150 | 3 | 450 |
| 180 | 3 | 540 |

Q3. What happens if my objection is accepted?
