What’s Released and Why It Matters?

The answer key allows aspirants to cross-check the answers they submitted against the correct options as determined by the examination authority. Alongside the answer key, candidates also have access to their individual response sheets and the complete question paper.

Here’s what’s important:

  • Transparency and Fairness: Candidates can question any error and request corrections.

  • Scoring Estimate: Helps estimate probable marks and qualifying chances.

  • Challenge Opportunity: If discrepancies are found, candidates can submit objections with valid proof.

The objections submitted will be evaluated by a panel of subject matter experts. If found valid, corrections will be made to the answer key, and the updated (final) version will form the basis for result preparation.
