However, only the best score out of the first 3 tries counts. For instance:Ok thanks. On the app it seems like once you hit 100% even if on 4th try, it shows 5/5 afterward.
1st try - 2/5 correct
2nd try - 4/5 correct
3rd try - 3/5 correct
4th try - 5/5 correct
Your score would be 4/5 or 80% for that particular quiz because that's the highest score you got within the first 3 attempts.
That is why I kept being confused.
I will try it again on a course I don't need as I am not sure they reset courses.
On app the limit and grade is only shown for the overall practice.
Thanks for the heads up I guess I was lucky the entire course I completed I scored 5/5 on all quizzes, and wasn't aware of the 3 tries limit![]()
Study.com should be more transparent at showing the weighted score immediately rather than after the proctored exam. I don't see the point to make people believe they scored all 100% without a real time measure of how one is doing.
I think the PC version gives the highest score for the first three tries. I can't be sure because I've never taken a quiz more than 3 times. It also tells you if you can try it again for more points or if the score is locked.
Most of the time there will be an explanation for the correct answer. When there isn't and I can't find the answer in the lesson, I report an error. I think in a few cases there was legitimately no correct answer.
Even with these few problems it is hard to beat Study.com for providing a reasonably easy and fast path to credit.
