UHS Entry Test Marking and Duration

[Saad (سعد)]

Allahumma Salli wa Sallim Da'iman 'Abadan 'alaa Habeebika Khayr il-Khalqi Kullihimi.

As-Salaamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu.

I wanted to ask about the UHS Entry Test's style of marking. I understand that the Entry Test has 220 MCQs and each correct answer scores 5 marks.

But what about a wrong answer?

And what if you leave the question attempted?

I understand there is negative marking in this exam. But how does it work?

And secondly, what is the duration of the paper?

Jazak Allah Khayran Kathira.

A wrong answer gives you a -6 (minus 6), hence the negative marking because an extra mark is deducted. A non-attempted question brings you at a loss of 5 marks.
The duration is 3 hours somewhat.

I think it would be better to say that -1 mark for every wrong answer [from your current score]

and i'm pretty sure the time is 150 minutes not 3 hours.

150 minutes or 3 hours?
