What is Photocopy of Answer Script?
The photocopy facility allows students to obtain a scanned or photocopied version of their evaluated answer sheets. This helps students:
- Check awarded marks
- Verify whether all answers were evaluated
- Identify totaling mistakes
- Decide whether to apply for re-evaluation
Students are advised to first obtain photocopies before opting for re-evaluation, especially if they suspect discrepancies in marking.
What is Re-evaluation?
Re-evaluation is the process through which JKBOSE rechecks the answer script for:
- Any unevaluated answers
- Totalling errors
- Mistakes in marks transfer
- Evaluation discrepancies
It is important to note that re-evaluation does not guarantee an increase in marks. Marks may increase, decrease, or remain unchanged after rechecking.
