The Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board (GSHSEB) has released the final answer key for the Gujarat Common Entrance Test (GujCET) and announced extra grace marks after finding errors in the Chemistry paper.
Earlier, the provisional answer key had identified errors in three questions for Gujarati and Hindi medium students and four for English medium students. After reviewing objections from students, the board found one more error in Chemistry. Now, Gujarati and Hindi medium students will get four grace marks, while English medium students will receive five.
The board also said that in three questions, two answer options were correct. Students who selected either correct option will get full marks for those questions.
The Gujarat Common Entrance Test was held on March 29 for admission to engineering and pharmacy courses. The provisional answer key was released on April 4, and students could raise objections until April 8. Experts reviewed all objections before finalising the answer key.
The board said this step ensures fairness so that students are not affected by errors in the question paper. With the final answer key out, the GujCET results are expected soon.
