Partial Credit can be allowed for CheckBoxes, Ordering, and Fill in the Blank questions. If this option is enabled, Test Takers receive a fraction of the question score when they answer the question partially correct.

To enable partial credit for a question:

  1. Select the question from the Summary List.

  2. Either double click the question to open it in edit mode or highlight it.

  3. Select Questions Settings> Allow Partial Credit (either Evenly or Individually scored) or click the appropriate Allow Partial Credit icon (image\partial_credit_icon.gif or image\partial_credit_individual_icon.gif) in the Questions Toolbar.

Note: Partial credit must be enabled for each question individually. It does not apply to the entire test.
