marking scheme:

Full Marks : +4 If only (all) the correct option(s) is (are) chosen.

Partial Marks : +3 If all the four options are correct but ONLY three
options are chosen.

Partial Marks :+2 If three or more options are correct but ONLY two

options for a question with second option being an incorrect option;
selecting only all the three correct options will result in +4 marks.
Selecting only two of the three correct options (e.g. the first and fourth
options), without selecting any incorrect option (second option in this
case), will result in +2 marks. Selecting only one of the three correct
options (either first or third or fourth option), without selecting any
incorrect option (second option in this case), will result in +1 marks.
