Out of 120 grade FAQ

What is 90 out of 120 as a grade?

90 out of 120 is 75%, a C on the standard US grading scale. That means 30 wrong answers, and it is a passing score.

How much is each question worth on a 120 question test?

Each question is worth 100 ÷ 120 = 0.83 percentage points, so every wrong answer lowers the grade by 0.83%. If your questions are worth different points, add up the points instead and divide by the total points possible.

How many questions can you miss on a 120 question test and still pass?

With a 60% pass mark you need at least 72 correct out of 120 (60%), so you can miss up to 48 questions and still pass. Some schools use 65% or 70% as the pass mark; you can change it in the test grader settings.

How many do you need for an A or a B out of 120?

An A (93% or higher) needs 112 correct out of 120, so you can miss 8. A B (83% or higher) needs 100 correct, so you can miss 20. On a 10-point scale, where an A starts at 90%, the numbers are a little more forgiving.
