How Scored and Assessment Quizzes Normally Work
Scored Quizzes:
Each answer choice is assigned a custom score.
As the quiz taker answers questions, their total score is calculated by summing the scores of their selected answers.
Each result is tied to a score range.
After completing the quiz, the quiz taker receives the result corresponding to the range their total score falls into.
This calculation is automatic when branching logic is not enabled.
Assessment Quizzes:
Each question has a correct answer (or multiple correct answers).
The quiz calculates how many answers the quiz taker gets correct.
Based on the total number of correct answers, the quiz assigns a result, such as Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced.
This calculation is automatic when branching logic is not enabled.
Important:
Automatic scoring does not work with branching logic.
Branching Logic Overview
When you enable Branching Logic:
You cannot use "Calculate Result" automatically.
You must manually assign a result to every branch of the quiz.
Why: Branching means quiz takers do not answer all questions, which breaks the usual scoring or assessment logic.
Rule: Every possible path through your quiz must end with a manually assigned result.
