If your answer is partially correct and partially incorrect, then no marks are to be added.
But, if your answer is partially correct only then allocate marks for that question by using this formula –> 2 x (No of correct option marks + total no of correct options).
If the answer does not match, then subtract marks as per the marking scheme for each category. It is as follows:
Category | Negative marking per Qs. |
I | 0.25 |
2 | 0.5 |
3 | 0 |
