How the Sections of the Test Are Scored
Drawing Section
• The primary emphasis in scoring the drawing section is on the candidates drawing,
imagination and observation skills. The candidates sense of proportion &
perspective is also evaluated together with sense for colour composition.
Aesthetic Sensitivity Section
-The candidates score will depend on his / her performance on the questions given
and on the number of questions answered in the time allotted.
-This section is computer adaptive, meaning that the computer selects
questions based on the candidates performance on preceding questions
(When correct answer is given, next question will be of higher difficulty level
whereas, if wrong answer is given next question is of lower difficulty level) and on the requirements of the test design. Test design factors that influence which questions are presented to the candidate include:
The statistical characteristics (including difficulty level) of the questions already answered
The required variety of question types
The appropriate coverage of content.
The final score depends on average difficulty level of all questions and of those questions answered correctly. E.g. person with correct answer for less number of questions of higher difficulty level may score higher marks than someone who answers more number of questions correctly but of lower difficulty level.
Average time allotted to answer the question is 90 seconds and the
countdown begins 30 seconds before the time ends, however, for certain
questions depending upon their difficulty level, time allotted to provide the
answer may be reduced to 60 seconds or may be extended to 120 seconds.
There is no Negative marking in this test.
