Is there a workaround for this? Thank you.

You can assign a negative score to incorrect answers if you want to penalize the users so in your case above, if each correct answer grants 1 point while each incorrect answer removes 1 point, the total for the question would be 1 point. You can also deduct decimal values; -0.5, for example.
