How to grade a 75-question test
Percent = questions right ÷ 75 × 100
Made-up example: 11 wrong leaves 64 right. 64 ÷ 75 × 100 = 85.3%, a B on the 10-point scale and a B on the plus/minus scale.
Half credit: half a question is worth 0.67%. Made-up example: 8.5 wrong is 88.67%, a B on the 10-point scale. To add half or quarter rows to the chart, set Step in the Test Grade Calculator.
Which grading scale is this?
The US has no national grading scale, so check your school's. This chart shows two published examples. The 10-point scale (A from 90, B from 80, C from 70, D from 60) is the one Florida law sets for public school grades 6 to 12. The plus/minus scale is one published table, from the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing catalog, where an A+ starts at 97 and an A- at 90. Your school may round 89.5 up to an A or may not: see does 89.5 round up to 90. To use your own cut-offs, save them on the Grading Scale page and the Test Grade Calculator will offer them.
