    Hi Mike

    Where there is, say, a question worth 4 marks and there are 4 separate true/false questions, do you get 1 mark for each correct answer, or do you need all 4 to be correct to get the 4 marks?

    Thanks
    Ashley

    4 marks? There are a number of 1 and 2 mark questions in the exam

    In a 2 mark question that is looking for just 1 option to be chosen, that’s going to score 2 or zero

    If it’s looking for 2 out of, say, 4 options to be chosen and you get 1 correct and 1 wrong, then I imagine that your score possibilities will be 2, 1 or zero

    But most likely, you’re looking at just 1 option to be chosen worth 2 marks

    Obviously, in a 1 mark question, that’s going to be 1 mark or zero

    There are also 5 questions worth 6 marks each. Those 6 marks are subdivided into, typically, 3 lots of 2 marks. Sometimes, that subdivision may be 2 lots of 3 marks and (I don’t remember ever seeing this!) one question of 4 marks and 1 of 2

    Where there are multiple parts to be selected, I believe that you score for those parts that you select correctly

    OK?
