Hi there,

Is there any solutions to this problem. Last thread I came across is not answer yet, http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=46862#217638 

Your help is highly appriciated.

Thanks,

hi Prashant

I am quite sure there are only two reasons for this

1. you may not have turned 'adaptive mode' to 'yes'.......without this, negative marking doesn't work(unlike indian exams where we think a wrong answer must be a guess and deduct marks for guessing, westerners give importance to 'learning' and this is evident here that they wanna ensure student attempts repeatedly till he knows whats right BUT gets penalised at the same time....)
2. turn grading method to last attempt.
