I Have heard quite a plenitude of people say, that JAMB subtracts marks as penalty for questions answered incorrectly. If the foregone is true, then it lends credence to the advice that one should never answer a question one is not 100% sure of its answer. Conclusively, it is improbable to me.  What do you think folks?Kindly do research and air your views methodogically. Thank u.

whats with the big grammar?

Anyway, I am not sure but it shouldnt be so..I mean, a trial is better than leaving the question blank. there might be a chance that you guess the right answer instead of leaving it blank.

My brothers, thanks a million . But I don't think that I can concede to that, owing to the following reasons. 1.) I cannot in anyway believe that one can be penalised for failing a question taking cognizance of the fact that no one will voluntarily opt to give an incorrect answer to a question. 2.) How on earth can one ask me to not guess answers, when their is the possibility of guessing  about 40% of the answers right.
