Adjusting max score in a quiz

Hey everyone,

I just finished a quiz that contains 11 freeform questions. Each correct answer by default gives the learner 10 points - so the maximum score of my quiz (Results.ScorePoints) is 110 points.

Now, 110 is a strange number to end on, I'd rather have a max score of 100 points. I know I can adjust the points each correct answer adds, but 100: 11= 9,090909090909...is a very uncomfortable number to work with. 
Is there any way to tell SL to adjust this automatically? 

 

Thank you!

Hi Ina,

Thanks for reaching out and sharing your concerns about the total points within your course.

There is not a way for you to set the max points for the course within Storyline outside of manually as you mentioned.

The passing of a course is determined via a percentage as is the user's score, so no need for those points to be a certain number.

For example:

  • Course has 11 questions at 10 points each and 110 total points
  • Course requires a passing score of 80% or 88 points
    • User gets 8/11 questions correct and gets 80/110 or 73%
    • User will need to get 9/11 (90/110 and 82%) questions correct to pass.
