Grading notes for a 7-question test
Seven-question quizzes often come from a textbook section review or a short set of practice problems tied to one lesson objective.
One wrong answer gives 85.71% (B) and two wrong answers give 71.43% (C-). To pass with 60%, a student needs 5 correct and can miss up to 2.
Because each question moves the score by 14.29%, only 4 of the 11 letter grades on the standard scale can actually be earned on this test: A+, B, C-, F. No whole-number score lands on A, A-, B+, B-, C+, C, D. Half-point scores can fill some of those gaps.
Each question is worth about 14.3%, so the grades jump in big steps: 7/7 is an A+, 6/7 is a B, and 5/7 is already a C-. If a single question on a seven-item quiz was confusing, dropping it changes the grade a lot, so it is worth checking item results before you enter scores.
