Default Please, clairfy this related to Precis exam 2018.
There were two words that were used in this year’s Precis:
“Saqafat” and “Taswwuf”.

I translated it as “civilization” and “asceticism”. However, Saqafat was used 4 times. 3 times I used civilization and once I used ‘culture’.

Now, some people have opined that I, and indeed many others who perhaps used the same words, may be penalized.

Should we expect being penalized?

You mean translation. In which case it's less serious than precis – only 10 marks. I doubt it will lead to a zero but yes, maybe a penalty. Made the same mistake myself.

Did you make this mistake this year or have you appeared before and made it then?

And my stupidity; I meant translation.
