Grading notes for a 19-question test

Nineteen-question tests are almost always a 20-question test with one item removed.

One wrong answer gives 94.74% (A) and two wrong answers give 89.47% (B+). To pass with 60%, a student needs 12 correct and can miss up to 7.

Because each question moves the score by 5.26%, only 8 of the 11 letter grades on the standard scale can actually be earned on this test: A+, A, B+, B, C+, C, D, F. No whole-number score lands on A-, B-, C-. Half-point scores can fill some of those gaps.

Removing a question does not affect every student the same way. Students who got it wrong gain (15/20 = 75% becomes 15/19 = 78.95%), while students who got it right can lose a little (16/20 = 80% becomes 15/19 = 78.95%). If that matters, give everyone credit for the question instead
