Negative Marking Calculator NEET

Model your NEET UG score under the +4 / -1 marking scheme and compare what blind and educated guessing actually add.

This NEET negative marking calculator converts an attempt strategy into an expected NEET UG score using the official +4 for a correct answer and -1 for an incorrect answer scheme over a 180-question, 720-mark paper. Enter how many questions you answer from knowledge, your mock-test accuracy and how many you guess, and it separates marks gained from marks surrendered to negative marking. It also shows the break-even accuracy of 20% below which answering costs you marks, so you can decide question by question whether to attempt or leave blank.

Why use Negative Marking Calculator NEET

• Splits gain from loss

  Marks earned at +4 and marks deducted at -1 are shown separately instead of only a net figure.

• Shows the guessing range

  Every projection carries a best case and worst case for the guessed block, not just an average.

• Break-even accuracy built in

  The 20% threshold where a NEET attempt becomes profitable is calculated from the marking scheme you enter.

Common use cases

• A repeater checking whether adding 20 blind guesses to a 150-question attempt actually raises the expected score or only widens the spread.
• A student with 82% mock accuracy testing how many marks are being handed back through wrong answers before the next attempt-strategy change.
• A coaching mentor showing a batch that eliminating two options turns a guess worth 0.25 marks into one worth 1.5 marks.
