Apparently the entire paper was an exercise in decision making...They wanted us to first make a decision about which instruction set to follow .. Whether to consider -ve marking or not.....#inception#whatkindofshitisthis
How many of you read that instruction of no negative marking for some questions. XAT has no option for removing the additional instruction now. Since it was specifically mentioned and some have said they announced at the centre. Now everything is dependent on how many students read the intruction. I am hoping serious contenders are available here. So do respond!
- Read the instruction and attempted accordingly.
- Didnt read the instruction for the same.

The test center is supposed to keep your admit card and NOT return it, right?
Careers360 says, "After the examination, the admit card may be required during the counselling and allotment process. Therefore, the candidates are advised to keep the XAT 2020 admit card safe until the entire admission procedure is over."
- They returned it to me
- They kept my admit card

Overall, XAT 2020 was similar to last year’s paper in terms of difficulty level.The confusion regarding negative marking might have affected the performance of a few students.Now, XAT Admin office has confirmed the presence of negative marking for all questions, thus ending the speculation.
The overall cut-off for XLRI BM is expected to go down by 3 marks to 33 because of confusion over negative marking.
There was no major surprise in GK, 25 questions carried no negative mark and were of the same difficulty level as last year.

Guys there was a similar glitch in another exam, SNAP 18 if I am not wrong and marks were still deducted.
I feel the same marking scheme mentioned in the instructions will be used and better use your time in preparing for calls rather than discussing here.
Expected overall and sectional cutoffs?
IRLX is the oldest and one of the best B school of Bindia, IRLX proud itself as one of the most ethical college in the world. College motto is " for the greater good".
Recently IRLX conducted its entrance examination (IAT) which was given by aprx 1,00,000 students.
IAT is a completely online exam conducted over 100s of center across Bindia, and is also a gateaway for other top colleges of Republic of Bindia.
This year IAT was held on 5th Jan 2020. Few students while giving the IAT noticed that there were many questions where unlike the first page instructions, negative marking was imprinted as 0, whereas correct mark was labeled correctly as 1.
This was bought to the notice of invigilators by some students in some centers.
There were announcements in some centre, where the authorities said "if there is no negative marking written, their wont be any negative mark in that question".
Students got confused over this.
After exam, there were rumors that this happened through out Bindia.
There were announcement in many centers throughout the country.
- Applogise saying it was technical glitch.
- Others
- Conduct a Retest
- Remove negative marking from all the questions.
- Remove negative marking from all the questions.
