How we calculated this

Points earned divided by points possible, shown as a percentage. Using the example values above, 42 out of 50 is 42 / 50 = 0.84, or 84%. Full precision is kept internally; the displayed result is rounded to two decimal places.

Limitations

This does not evaluate partial credit on individual questions; it only divides totals you already have. If the test has unequal-value questions and you want to know how many you can afford to miss, use Questions You Can Miss or Need Correct for equal-value items, or work from points directly here.

Frequently asked

Does this feed into my overall course grade automatically?
Not by itself; use Current Weighted Course Grade or Points-Based Course Grade to combine this result with the rest of your course.
What if the test allowed bonus points?
Add bonus points to your earned total only if you know your instructor counts them that way; otherwise, calculate without them for an honest baseline.
