Hi buddy I am going to appear in Elitmus Test and here come to know that , is there Negative Marking system for wrong answer ??

As you want to know about Negative Marking system for wrong answer in Elitmus Test, so I would like to say The test uses a unique handicap based negative marking approach, but If you do more than 25% questions wrong of the total attempt then for rest of every wrong answer half mark will be deducted. If you attempt more than 1/4th of total questions wrong then you get negative marking, for example: if you attend 12 questions, 1/4th of 12 is 4, so if you attempt 9 right and 3 wrong then u have no negative markings but if you attend 8 right and 4 wrong then negative marking will be there for that 4th question but not for the other 3. Negative markings are section wise not for the complete test.
