Hi Sir/Ma'am,

Kindly let me know why zero (0) was allocated for Q6, for Week 2 Graded Assignment although 3 out of my 4 selections were correct
All practice assignments and after-lecture assignments have part marking but none were allocated in this case.
Attaching screenshot below.

looking forward to your reply.

best regards,
Sankalita

Actually how the valuation process for multiple choice questions was send to us in announcement tap.In that it is clearly mentioned that if we select one wrong option in our answer they will not give marks for that entire question hence marks will be zero.

One wrong answer in MSQ will fetch 0 marks.

Thank you for the clarification. 
I scored above 89% in all the subjects except Maths. 
I think because of 2 marks I will not be qualified for this course. This happened due to non-submission of Assignment1(faced technical glitch on the last day of submission) and the half-day outage on 2nd November(i couldn't sign in during the 1st half of 2nd Nov).
I am a working woman and can only study during the fixed hours that I allot for this purpose. So, any kind of outage during my allotted study time is bound to impact the outcome.

Anyways, if i don't qualify this time, is it possible to re-apply. If so, then when.

Thanks & Regards
Sankalita

Dear Sankalita,
please check in the portal whether you are qualified before thinking anything. Please verify. In case you can not give the exam or do not pass the qualifier this time, please keep looking at the website. Sometime at the beginning of next year or may be even before that, the next admission cycle will be announced. 
Best wishes.
