the Score of Actual Exm is somewht like this Like if the Question is very Tough then u get 2 points for it n easy ones u get right. THe Tough ones r not the Experimental ones they r separate n dont count towards ur score its the no of tough ones which deicde ur 99% or 95%. this is wht i have gathered but plz do also look around in th eposts of our MEMBER P53 he has done a good job of explaining the scoring system.
