about scoring

<p>I have read everywhere that for every wrong answer you lose a fraction of point. But none of them sais what that fraction is. Usually, from the formula for raw score you can assume you lose 1/4 points. But why doesn't it anywhere explain this exactly? Can this fraction change from test to test? And one more thing: how are the chemistry cause-effect questions marked? do you lose 1/4 points for every wrong answer as usually? And does it make any difference in scoring betwen considering both questions wrongly and considering only one of them wrongly?</p>

<p>it is i/4 off for each question number you answer with a wrong answer and nothing if left blank. It is the same for all tests. </p>

<p>For chem it is the same.... eg. question number 25 if you answer F F and it is t t you still loose 1/4 point</p>

<p>what if it's TT CE and you do TT but not CE</p>

<p>then it's wrong!!</p>

<p>there's five possible choices for this
TT, FF, TF, FT, and CE
so it still works out.</p>

<p>on some of the language tests there's only 4 choices so for those you'd lose 1/3 point</p>
