How negative marking is calculated

Final score = (Correct answers × marks per correct answer) − (Incorrect answers × penalty per incorrect answer).

Unattempted questions receive zero marks in this calculator. Enter the marking scheme specified in your exam instructions. Some exams use fractional penalties such as 0.25 or 0.33 marks per wrong answer.
