Loksewa Score & Merit Simulator
Deterministic calculation of Paper 1 objective scores with fully customizable questions, marks per question, and negative marking percentage. Enforces mathematical boundaries so Correct, Wrong, and Unchecked questions never exceed total questions.
Qualified • 22.00 marks above pass mark
Enter your target score to calculate exact attempts and allowed errors based on your configured weight and negative penalty:
Configurable Negative Penalty
Standard PSC exams deduct 20% of the mark allocated to the question for each incorrect answer. Custom mock tests, banking exams (NRB, RBB), and technical tiers can be dialed anywhere from 0% to 33.33% with per-question weights from 0.1 to 20 marks.
50% Merit Roster Carryover
Paper 1 is not merely qualifying. 50% of your net Paper 1 marks are added to your written stage (Paper 2 & 3) scores to form the final merit rank recommendation. High Paper 1 scores create an insurmountable competitive buffer.
Zero-Penalty on Unchecked
Unanswered or skipped questions incur exactly zero mark deduction. Mathematical expectation for blind guessing with 4 options is -0.05, but eliminating even one wrong choice shifts expected return positive (+0.10).
