How to Calculate Your Marks Using the Kerala PSC Village Field Assistant Answer Key 2026
Once you have the answer key for your exam date (see the download section above), you can estimate your score in a few steps.
- Note the question paper series (A, B, C or D) printed on your question booklet.
- Match your marked answers (from your OMR copy or rough record) against the key for that series.
- Count your correct answers and award 1 mark for each.
- Count your wrong answers and deduct negative marks if applicable. [Confirm the rule from the VFA notification: the deduction per wrong answer, or “no negative marking”.]
- Leave unattempted questions out of the calculation.
Formula:
Estimated Score = (Correct Answers × 1) − (Wrong Answers × negative mark per wrong answer)
Example: If you answered 70 questions correctly and 20 wrongly, with [X] deducted per wrong answer, your estimated score is 70 − (20 × [X]).
The total is 100 marks. Your score is only an estimate while the key is provisional, because Kerala PSC may change or cancel questions after reviewing objections. Recheck your marks against the final key once it is released.
