Negative Marking CP2

Hi All,

Is there anyone that marks this exam aware if there are negative marks in CP2? For example if I wrote 6 correct assumptions and 2 incorrect assumptions would it result in losing marks in the exam?

Thanks :)
 
No, there's no negative marking. You'll get the marks for the valid assumptions you've stated.
It's possible that you could "cancel out" a mark for something you've said if you also say the opposite! Otherwise no.
 
There are also a few marks for drafting (clarity of writing) - you could lose these if you go overboard and include a load of irrelevant stuff, making the correct, value-added assumptions hard to pick out. But agree with David - no negative marking.
