Set on their difficulty. If more difficult then more marks.
If you get it wrong. 25% of the points(of that question) are cut.

What he said. There is negative marking, but intelligent guessing is encouraged.

That's a great question! I've always wondered about the weighting of those specific question types too. They often feel more complex, like trying to decipher one of Granny old riddles! I hope someone with more expertise can chime in. It would be good to know if we should be allocating extra time to those questions specifically, or if they are scored the same as the standard ones. Thanks for bringing this up!
