I am just asking...is it possible to score full marks in subjects like economics...

In maths physics we can score 100%

Just asking as a science student..no idea about the nature of the subject..I have it is an analytical subject...so answer can be in our concepts ?

I had received closed to 100 but never a 100. But I am not saying it's impossible. There might be students with perfect scores.

You can get a 100, provided the questions are not opinion pieces. Most papers are fact based that test you on knowledge. Most application based questions are numerical with one definitive answer.


So yes, it’s quite possible 👍

Yes.. It is possible. I have had friends who scored 100 in economics in their board exams. I have friends who scored a perfect 100 in Economics in college too. I got a 100 too so it’s quite possible provided your application of the concept is true to the fact and is acceptable.

I agree with this. While scoring my students on subjective questions, I always use rubrics to align scores. But when there is no definite answer, we are told there is ALWAYS a scope of improvement, even if it's 1%. So when I used to give out of scores to one-two students in my class, my senior professor explained it to me how the scoring works in academics.


Plus what used to really piss me off the most was initially, whenever I scored students based on their assignments scores in their marksheet were quite different. I can't do anything, I was told about some crappy concept of normalizing it.

So, I doubt that if a student is expected to write conceptual answers, they can get 100%. Economics, though factual subject, could have scope of improvement - they might cut 1-2 points for grammar if they can't for anything else. 😆
