1.0 Introduction:

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) was established in
1962 by Government of West Bengal in exercise of the powers conferred under
article 162 of the Constitution of India in pursuant to No. 828-Edn(T), dated
02.03.1962.
Subsequently in 2014, the Government of West Bengal enacted the West Bengal Act
XIV of 2014 to form The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board
(hereinafter called ‘Board’) and empowered it to conduct Common Entrance
Examinations for selection of candidates for admission to undergraduate and
postgraduate Professional, Vocational and General Degree Courses in the State of
West Bengal and to conduct on-line counselling process or otherwise adopting a
single-window approach.

WBJEEB has been instrumental in the admission process based on online

application and allotment through e-Counselling since 2012. It advocates fairness
and transparency, ensures no-error, and adopts state-of-the-art technology.

2.0 West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination-2022 (WBJEE-2022)

WBJEEB will conduct OMR based Common Entrance Examination (WBJEE-2022)
for admission in the academic session 2022-23 into Undergraduate Courses in

WBJEE-2022 Information Bulletin Page: 8/44

c) Candidates appearing only in paper-I are not eligible for any rank.

2.3 Pattern of Question Papers in WBJEE-2022

All questions will be of Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ), with four options
against each question. There will be three categories of questions in each of the
subjects. The number of questions as well as maximum marks for each are given
in the following table:

Category-1 Category-2 Category-3 Total Total

Number of Marks
Each Q Each Q Each Q
Questions
carries 1 carries 2 carries 2

(-ve marks = (-ve marks = (No -ve
-1/4) -1/2) marks)
No. of Q No. of Q No. of Q
Mathematics 50 15 10 75 100
Physics 30 5 5 40 50
Chemistry 30 5 5 40 50

2.4 Syllabus of Examination: The subject wise Syllabus for the WBJEE-2022 is given in
appendix-7.

2.5 Mode of answering in the examination.

a) Questions are to be answered on specially designed optical machine-readable
response (OMR) sheet, which will be evaluated by Optical Mark Recognition
method. Thus, it is very important to follow the correct method of marking.
b) Candidates will indicate response to the questions by darkening the
appropriate circle completely with blue/black ball point pen.
c) Any other kind of marking e.g., filling the bubble incompletely, filling with
pencil, cross mark, tick mark, dot mark, circular mark, over writing, scratching,
erasing, white ink, marking outside the bubble etc. may lead to
wrong/partial/ambiguous reading of the response. WBJEEB will be, in no way,
responsible for such eventuality.
d) Response marking cannot be edited/changed/erased/modified.

2.6 Scoring Methodology

Category Scoring methodology
1 a) Only one option is correct.
b) Correct response will yield 1 (one) mark for each question.
c) Incorrect response will yield -1/4 (25% negative) marks for each
question.
d) For any combination of more than one option, even if it contains the
correct option, the said answer will be treated as incorrect and will
WBJEE-2022 Information Bulletin Page: 9/44

yield -¼ (negative ¼) marks.

e) Not attempting the question will fetch zero mark.
2 a) Only one option is correct.
b) Correct response will yield 2(two) marks for each question.
c) Incorrect response will yield -1/2 (25% negative) marks for each
question.
d) For any combination of more than one option, even if it contains the
correct option, the said answer will be treated as incorrect and will
yield -1/2 (25% negative) marks.
e) Not attempting the question will fetch zero mark.
3 a) One or more options is/are correct.
b) Marking all correct options only will yield 2 (two) marks.
c) For any combination of answers containing one or more incorrect
options, the said answer will be treated as incorrect, and it will yield
zero (0) mark even if one or more of the chosen options is/are
correct.
d) For partially correct answers, i.e., when all correct options are not
marked and also no incorrect options are marked, marks awarded =
2 × (no of correct options marked) / (total no of actually correct
options)
e) Not attempting the question will fetch 0 marks

2.7 Ranking Methodology and Merit Lists.

WBJEEB will prepare merit ranks based on the candidates’ score in the Common
Entrance Test. Individual candidates will be able to view and download his/her
Rank Card, which will contain score and rank. WBJEEB does not publish any
rank/score list for public to ensure confidentiality to each individual candidate.
Based on the papers (subjects) appeared for and the marks scored, two separate
Merit Ranks shall be generated in the following method:
A. General Merit Rank: (GMR)
a) A sequence of General Merit Rank (GMR) will be prepared based on the total
score obtained in Paper-I and Paper-II taken together.
b) Ranking shall be done in the descending order of total marks scored in all
the subjects. In case of ties, tie-breaking rules as given in 2.7 shall be
applicable.
c) Separate reserved category merit position will also be indicated for
respective category of students e.g., SC Rank, ST Rank, OBC-A Rank, OBC-B
Rank, PWD Rank, TFW Rank etc., as applicable.
d) Admission to all Engineering / Technology / Architecture Courses and to the
Pharmacy Course in Jadavpur University will be based on GMR.
e) Sequencing order for counselling/allotment of seat/admission will be
based on GMR only (not on category ranks). Category ranks are for
information only to candidates of respective category.
B. Pharmacy Merit Rank: (PMR)
WBJEE-2022 Information Bulletin Page: 10/44

a) A sequence of Pharmacy Merit Rank (PMR) will be prepared based on the

score in paper-II only, i.e., Physics and Chemistry.
b) Ranking shall be done in the descending order of marks scored in paper-II.
In case of ties, tie-breaking rules as given in 2.8 shall be applicable.
c) Separate reserved category merit position will also be indicated for
respective category of students e.g., SC Rank, ST Rank, OBC-A Rank, OBC-B
Rank, PWD Rank, TFW Rank etc., as applicable.
d) Admission to all Pharmacy Courses except in Jadavpur University shall be
done based on PMR.
e) Sequencing for allotment of seat will be based on PMR only (not on
category ranks). Category ranks are only for information to candidates of
respective category.
C. Category ranks are generated based on the category information given by the
candidates during online application, but documents are verified during
counselling. Hence candidate’s certificates/ documents/ proofs must be valid as
on the date of verification. If during verification, any candidate’s claim is found
invalid at that time, his/her category rank will be cancelled, and the candidate
will be considered in general category. Category ranks of other candidates
will not be revised.
