Mark for Review Facility in the CBT

During the Computer Based Test, candidates will have access to a “Mark for Review” option to revisit any question, but this facility is available only within the prescribed time of the active section – once a section is submitted, review is no longer possible. Two situations are worth noting: if a candidate marks a question for review without answering it, that question is treated as unanswered when the section’s time expires and is not evaluated at all. However, if a candidate answers a question and also marks it for review, it is treated as the candidate’s final answer at the end of the section – it will be evaluated normally, earning marks if correct and attracting negative marking if incorrect. Candidates should keep this distinction in mind while managing their time during the exam.
