Prelims Negative Marking: 1/4th for Each Wrong Answer

In Uttarakhand Judiciary Prelims, there is 1/4th negative marking for each wrong answer.

This means students must not only study hard but also attempt smartly.

Why Negative Marking Matters

Aspirants often lose marks because of:

⚠ Blind guessing
⚠ Confusion between two close options
⚠ Over-attempting
⚠ Poor revision
⚠ Lack of mock test practice
⚠ Not reading questions carefully
⚠ Not managing time properly

Smart Attempt Strategy

Level 1Sure Questions

Attempt these first. These are questions where you clearly know the answer.

Level 2Elimination-Based Questions

Attempt only if you can confidently eliminate at least two wrong options.

Level 3Blind Guess Questions

Avoid these. With negative marking, blind guessing can reduce your score.

DLM Prelims Rule:

Accuracy is more important than over-attempting.

A serious aspirant must practice:

Topic-wise MCQs
Full-length mock tests
OMR-based practice
Error notebook analysis
Negative marking calculation
Time-bound solving
