Hello , Pertaining to the CSA examination's multiple-choice section, I wish to inquire whether partial credit is awarded for answers that are partially correct, or if such responses receive no marks whatsoever.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @RajuPachamatla,
there's no such a thing as partially correct, you either have it correct or you don't, nothing in between.
I remember a question with 7 answers and you were supposed to select 5... if you selected 4 correct and 1 incorrect, it was not a correct answer and evaluated so.
for the CSA, most of the questions are ABCD and just one is correct, there might be a few but not too many with selecting more than one and you are always told how many are expected - "Select 2 answers" for example...
So you don't need to worry about this. And good luck!
/* If my response wasn’t a total disaster ↙️ ⭐ drop a Kudos or Accept as Solution ✅ ↘️ Cheers! */
