How do I calculate my AP ICET score?

Your raw score is simply the number of correct answers, because each carries one mark and wrong answers lose nothing.

ResponseMarks
Correct answer+1
Wrong answer0
Not answered0
Maximum200

Your raw marks are then normalised, because the two sessions have different papers. The formula adjusts your marks using the average plus standard deviation, and the average of the top 0.1% of candidates, in your session and across both sessions. So your final marks can be slightly higher or lower than your raw count. You need 25% (50 out of 200) to get a rank, except SC and ST candidates.

Where can I find past AP ICET answer keys?

The official master papers are the best way to see the key format. The AP ICET previous year papers for 2020 to 2026 come with the correct options marked, and 2019 has separate keys for both sessions.

No. Each session has its own question paper, so there is a separate master paper and key for Shift 1 and Shift 2.
What is the fee to challenge the AP ICET answer key?
Rs 300 for each objection in 2026. It is refunded only if the objection is accepted.
Is there negative marking in AP ICET?
No. Wrong and unanswered questions get zero, so your raw score is the number of correct answers.

Marks are normalised across the two sessions, and the rank card prints the normalised score up to four decimal places.
