How Negative Marking Score Calculator helps
Enter the number of questions, correct and incorrect answers and the points awarded or deducted.
Method and assumptions
Total score = correct × points per correct − incorrect × penalty per incorrect. Unanswered questions add zero.
Example
60 correct at +1 and 20 wrong at −0.25 gives a score of 55, with 20 unanswered out of 100.
Know the limits
Check your inputs and verify important financial, health, legal, educational or property decisions using the relevant professional or official source. Results depend on stated assumptions.
