    How Will UCEED Part B Answers Be Evaluated?

    Two experts will manually evaluate the UCEED Part B answers independently. The scheme of evaluation for the questions is as follows -

    • If the difference in marks awarded by the two evaluators is less than or equal to 10 marks, a simple average of the two evaluations will be considered.
    • If the difference is greater than 10 marks, the answer sheet of Part B will be examined by a third expert (and so on until the difference of marks is less than or equal to 10).
    • A simple average of the closest of two evaluations will be selected as the final score
    • If the difference in marks of the closest of two evaluations is greater than 10 after several evaluations, a moderator will be invited to examine the answers
    • If the difference in marks between the moderator and either of the examiners is the same, then the higher average will be considered to calculate the final score.
