dude, its given one third of the marks alloted to tat qn will be deducted for wrong answers. if the question carries 3 marks, the negative mark is 1, while if it carries 1 mark(of course, no qn is gonna carry 1 mark), then its 1/3

NIT-Trichy.

yeah .....1/3 of the marks of the question are cut as negative marking

so if we have a three marks question .............

then the negative marking = 1 mark for that particular question

in general .......... 1/3 of the marks of the question marks are deducted for an incorrect answer ..

@ achinbansal :

the first thing is that u shud b confident that the answer is correct ..

if time permits u cam re-check ur solutions and ur steps ....

in most cases we do commit silly mistakes but by re-checking the solutions ... we can avoid -ve marking .....

well
to save urself from negative marking theirs just one method
no guesses.......................but that can cost u some marks also
i mean u might have a guess at some sum and might leave it
but later that might prove to be the right answer

i would suggest u to play fearless with this.................coz as much more precautionary u r against these -ve marking..................the more is the possibality that u wud get them

so my suggestion...................................be fearlees
be confident
and u have got good marks in AIEEE


@studyid
dont u checking again , he might loose more time????
afterall aieee is all a game of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
