Understanding Category 1 vs. Category 2 Questions

A unique aspect of JENPAS UG is its marking scheme, designed to test deep conceptual clarity.

Category 1 Questions: These carry 1 mark each and have a single correct answer. Incorrect attempts incur a -1/4th negative marking penalty.

Category 2 Questions: Found in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, these carry 2 marks each and can have one or more correct options. There is no negative marking here, but partial marking applies if you select only correct options without selecting all of them.

3. Top 5 Tips to Crack JENPAS UG 2026

1. Focus on NCERT Biology: Biology accounts for a significant portion of the paper conceptually. Memorizing diagrams, classifications, and human physiology from the NCERT textbook is non-negotiable.
2. Practice Category 2 Questions: Many students lose out on top ranks because they are completely unfamiliar with multiple-correct-option questions. Practice these rigorously to maximize your score in Physics and Chemistry.
3. Master Time Management: You only have 90 minutes to tackle 100 conceptually dense questions. Train yourself to breeze through the Basic English and Logical Reasoning sections to save time for complex Physics numericals.
4. Take Weekly Mock Tests: Analyzing full-length mock tests under real exam pressure is the fastest way to identify weak chapters and improve overall accuracy.
5. Seek Structured Mentorship: A well-planned, structured curriculum curated by expert faculty offers targeted preparation, eliminating the noise of studying irrelevant topics.
