Answer
NMAT 2026 does not award a fixed number of marks per question. Unlike CAT or XAT, NMAT uses an adaptive scaled scoring system where the total score ranges from 36 to 360, with each section scored on a scale of 12 to 120. Since NMAT is a Computer Adaptive Test, the score reflects the difficulty level of questions answered correctly. A candidate who answers harder questions scores higher than one answering the same number of easier questions. There is no simple "marks per question" formula in NMAT.
