Scoring Pattern (Negative Marking) for Elitmus

eLitmus follows a scoring method called the ‘Handicap Based Negative Marking’. Negative marking is done based on

  • The number of questions attempted by the candidate
  • The accuracy of wrong answers

Based on the number of questions attempted – For example, a student who gets 4 wrong answers out of 30 attempts is penalised higher for each wrong answers compared to a student who gets 4 wrong answers out of 40 attempts.

Based on the accuracy of wrong answers – Every question has close wrong answers and irrelevant wrong answers. For example, a question like “What is the capital of India?” could have choices as Delhi, New Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. A person marking Delhi as an answer is treated differently as compared to a person marking Mumbai or Bangalore.
