Read each question carefully. Be mindful of multiple answer questions. Each correct answer will give you partial credit for that question. Each incorrect answer will decrease your score for that question.  For example, if a multiple answer question has 1 point possible and there are two correct answers, you will receive 1/2 point for every correct answer. If you chose one right answer and one wrong answer, your wrong answer will cancel out your 1/2 point. If both of your choices are incorrect, your score will just be 0. The score will never go below “0”.
