RRB Technician Marking Scheme 2026

  • There is a provision of negative marking for wrong answers; ⅓ marks will be deducted.
  • Candidates will be rewarded +1 for the correct answer.

How to Calculate Marks Using RRB Technician Official Answer Key?

Step 1- Count your Correct Answers: Compare your responses (from your response sheet) with the official answer key. Count the total number of questions you answered correctly.

Step 2- Count your Wrong Answers: Count the total number of questions where your response does not match the official key.

Step 3- Apply the Formula

Tentative Score = (1 × Correct Answers) − (0.33 × Incorrect Answers)

For example, if a candidate attempts 90 questions and gets 72 correct and 18 wrong:
