The responses given by the candidate will be mentioned in the GUJCET response sheet. Hence, candidates can compare the GUJCET 2026 response sheet and answer key to determine the correct and incorrect responses in the exam.

The GUJCET marking scheme includes +1 marks for correct responses and -0.25 marks for incorrect responses. The formula mentioned below can be referred to by the candidates to calculate their expected scores.

Formula:
Score = (Number of Correct Answers × 1) – (Number of Incorrect Answers × 0.25)

For example, if a candidate attempts 100 questions, with 70 correct and 20 wrong:

Score = (70 × 1) – (20 × 0.25)
Score = 70 – 5
Score = 65 marks

This calculation method helps candidates estimate their scores after the exam using the official GUJCET answer key.

Hello dear student,

98 marks in GUJCET is a very good marks, but 58% may reduce your overall merit rank as both class and GUJCET marks are considered.

You have some chances for ECE in government colleges but not in the top ones. so, you should keep other branches as backup as well.

Hello,

With 98 marks in GUJCET, you have a good chance of getting an ECE seat in a government engineering college in Gujarat, as a score between 80 and 120 is considered good and can help you target a reputed college. However, the 58% may decrease your chances of admission, so you have to take care of it.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello

You scored 98 marks in GUJCET, which is a strong score. Well done
Your 58 in board exams (due to an accident) might lower your overall merit a bit.
Still, there's a fair chance you could get ECE in a government engineering college, especially in later rounds.
Top colleges may be harder to get into due to high cut-offs, but some mid-level government colleges might take you. Your GUJCET score definitely helps balance out the low board marks.

After 12th Science PCB group in Gujarat and GujCET , you can apply for courses in B.Sc (Biology/Biotechnology/ Agriculture/Forestry/Fisheries), BPT (Physiotherapy), Nursing, Pharmacy, and Allied Health Sciences . If you had PCB (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) , you are not eligible for B.Tech (Engineering) courses , which require PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Maths) .

Other options include:

  • B.Sc Nursing (requires PCB + Biology).

  • B.Sc Agriculture / Horticulture / Forestry (some states accept PCB).

  • BPT / Occupational Therapy in private or government colleges.

  • Paramedical courses like Medical Lab Technology, Radiology, Optometry, etc.
