    No, the LPUNEST exam does not have negative markings. As a result, you won't be punished for giving erroneous answers or leaving questions unanswered, enabling you to make educated estimates and attempt every question without fear of failing.
    For some test takers, this can be advantageous because it motivates them to answer every question and consider all of their possibilities without worrying about failing. It's still important, though, to make good use of your time and, whenever feasible, aim for precise responses.

    LPUNEST includes MCQs (4 or 5 marks) or fill-in-the-blank questions (5 marks). Note that there is no negative marking. Ea
