Frequently asked questions

No. Many KP PSC screening tests for popular posts deduct 0.5 marks per wrong answer, but some posts have no negative marking at all. Read your test instructions carefully and set the penalty field to 0 if your post has no negative marking.
Cutoffs change with every advertisement and candidate pool, but as a rough guide under 40 percent rarely qualifies, 40 to 59 percent is low merit, 60 to 74 percent is good merit and 75 percent or more is high merit. Only the official KP PSC result is final.
Under negative marking, a random guess usually loses marks over time. Attempt a doubtful question only when you can eliminate at least one or two options. The attempt meter in this calculator shows how your guesses affect the final score.
