How UGC NET Marks Are Calculated
Total Marks = (Correct in Paper 1 × 2) + (Correct in Paper 2 × 2)
- Correct answer: +2 marks
- Wrong answer: 0 marks — UGC NET has no negative marking
- Question dropped after review: full marks awarded to everyone who attempted it
History Paper 2 typically runs 100 questions worth 200 marks, added to Paper 1’s 100 marks, for 300 total.
Where Manual Counting Goes Wrong in History Specifically
History Paper 2 jumps across eras — Ancient India, Medieval India, Modern India, and World History — often without a predictable order, plus historiography and source-based questions mixed throughout. It’s easy to lose your row alignment moving between a Mughal-era question and a historiography question while counting by hand. This calculator matches every answer by its actual Question ID, so switching between eras and themes never causes a miscount.
