The Indian Institutes of Technology have decided to introduce a partial marking scheme from this academic year. According to the new scheme, students will be granted 1 mark for each correct answer in a multiple choice question if it has multiple answers.

This scheme will help students to gain 48 marks out of 108 and will include both JEE Advanced Paper 1 and JEE Advanced Paper 2. Previously students were awarded with negative marks if they had not marked all the right answers.
