Consider several scenarios when creating application questions and assigning points to your questions.
If an applicant has a correct answer to a question that is scored, the points for the response are included in the scoring. If an applicant has an incorrect response to a question, the points assigned to that question are included in the final total calculation. An incorrect answer is any response that is not correct, whether or not it is disqualifying.
All questions must be answered on an application.
Consider an Opportunity with two questions, with points weighted as follows:
Given these point settings, candidate answers can result in the following scores:
| Candidate | Question 1 | Question 2 | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Correct | Correct | 7/7 points, or 100% |
| 2 | Incorrect | Correct | 2/7 points, or 29% |
| 3 | Correct | Incorrect | 5/7 points, or 71% |
| 4 | Incorrect | Incorrect | 0/7 points, or 0% |
