Uplup Quiz Builder offers flexible scoring options to match your needs:
Each question is worth a set number of points. Quiz takers see their total points earned. You can assign different point values to different questions.
Scores are displayed as a percentage of total possible points. Useful for standardized assessments where different quizzes may have different numbers of questions.
Set a passing threshold (e.g., 70%). Quiz takers are told whether they passed or failed. Great for certifications and compliance training.
No right or wrong answers. Each answer contributes to different outcomes, and quiz takers are shown which outcome their answers match. Perfect for personality tests and recommendation quizzes.
For questions with multiple correct answers, award partial points for getting some answers right. For example, if a question has 4 correct answers and the quiz taker selects 2, they receive 50% of the points.
