hi
in the upsc examination, the negative marking is fixed. And there will be a deduction of 1/3 marks from each question, which t=you have attempted and that is wrong.
Therefore it is advisable that you should be very careful while attempting for the answers in the upsc competitive examination because there is the negative marking which can destroy your dreams to go to the next level.
And it is said, unless you are 80% sure about a particular question, don�t go for the answer it is better to leave the question rather than getting a minus 1.
