Hey,
Yes you are right that mat is of 200 marks but actually the total marks of the exam are 200 and the scaled score is given out of 800. Most importantly the MAT exam pattern has remained consistent over the years. The marking scheme for this test is 1 mark per every correct question and a negative marking of0.25marks per every incorrect answer.
So by scaling a score, a one can get 600 out of 800 marks.
I hope this will clear out your query to some extent.
Cheers! !
