How to Use This Calculator

Enter the raw multiple-choice result and a Create-task score from the rubric or practice source being used. Keep the official 70% / 30% section weights.

Formula & Methodology

The end-of-course multiple-choice exam contributes 70% and the Create performance task contributes 30%. Each section is converted to a percentage before weighting.

Worked example

Scoring 49 of 70 MCQs and 7 of 10 modeled Create points produces a 70% weighted composite before applying editable cutoffs.

Official Create scoring includes submitted work and written responses. Practice rubrics and raw-point totals vary, so the Create total is editable.
