CMAT mock test- To perform well in CMAT 2025, attempting mock tests is essential. CMAT mock tests not only help a candidate in developing time management skills but also in discovering tricks and shortcuts to solve calculation intensive questions easily and accurately. The main purpose of practicing CMAT mock test is to develop speed and accuracy in solving questions of varied types and difficulty levels.
CMAT is a speed-based test having 100 questions to be solved in 180 minutes. So effectively, one gets 1.8 minutes to read every question, understand and solve or skip a question.

Q: Â Is there any negative marking in CMAT?
Yes, there is a negative marking in CMAT exam. For each wrong answer, 1 mark will be deducted. For example, if a candidate attempts 18 questions from Logical Reasoning and gets 15 questions correct but 3 questions incorrect. Then the candidate's score for this section will be 15x4-3, i.e. 57. However, no marks will be deducted for unanswered questions.
Thus, candidates must choose only those questions to solve which they are sure of solving accurately. It is anyway not possible to solve all 100 questions, so candidates must weigh their options viz. Strength and weak areas and then choose questions carefully.
If candidates are not sure of answering a question correctly or it is taking too much time, then they should leave that questions and move to next as they also need to keep a tab on the time limit.
