Section 13 in The Punjab Homoeopathic Practitioners (Appointment of Examiners, Centre Superintendent and Conduct of Examinations) Regulations, 1984
13. Evaluation of Answer-books.
(a)The answer-books shall be arranged in serial order before starting the actual evaluation and then marked by the Examiner.(b)In examining the answer-books, the Examiner shall indicate clearly on the left hand margin in the answer-books the number of marks awarded by him to each separate answer. On the title page of the answer-book too, in the columns provided for the purpose he/she shall note down the marks allotted by him to each question separately. The marks shall be distinctly written in ink or with red or blue pencil (a lead pencil shall not be used) in the Examiner's own hand writing. Half marks shall be raised in the total only and not in individual questions or parts thereof to the next whole parts, the marks may be awarded part-wise and the sub-total of the whole question may be indicated in the last part attempted by the candidate and on the title page where in a question there is break-up of marks i.e. 4+3+9+4 the examiner should mark the answer accordingly and not on ad hoc or lump sum form.(c)It has been noticed that some candidates restart writing answer to the same question paper leaving a page or even a few pages blank in the answer- books. Some Examiners leave these answers unmarked. The Examiners are, therefore, advised to go through all the pages of the answer-book to ensure that no answer is left out unmarked. All blank pages should be crossed by the examiner.(d)The Examiners are requested to indicate the mistakes underlining them or by putting cross-marks thereon.Every answer-book shall bear the signatures of the Examiner on the title page in token of his having examined it personally.
