question about CSSA Exam pattern
Please provide suggestions/clarifications for the below ones:
1.What is the purpose of having 3 experimental questions in CSSA exam and can they be distinguished in any way from other scorable questions ?
2.For multiple responses questions, for example If I have to choose two options, and if one of them is correct and one is incorrect, will the correct one be considered in the score?

The three experimental questions were added to see how the questions might fare and could possibly be used in future CSSA exams. There is no way to distinguish them and there is no credit given to the questions. You don't receive any credit positive or negative when answering these questions. They will not figure in to your final score.
The multiple response questions, you will get a list of possible answers and the question will ask you to pick two, three or four from the possible answers. If you get one of the answers incorrect you will miss the entire question.
In addition there are also T and F questions on the exams.
Hope this helps answer your questions,

Hi Ravi,
Thank you for your question. No, you only receive marks for correct answers - scores will not be decreased if you get an answer wrong.
I hope this helps,
