Change test weights

Updated 23 Sep 2022

You can choose how individual tests are weighted when calculating students' overall scores. You also can omit results to exclude them from the overall score calculations.

  1. Select Change Weights from the Gradebook toolbar.
  2. Enter new weights, in points, in the Assignment Weight box.

    The total combined weight of all tests is displayed at the bottom of the list.

    If you set the test weight to zero, the Omit Results box is checked.

    If the program is a member of a program group, a green diamond appears beside coordinator-created tests. Weight changes in a coordinator program are inherited by member programs.

  3. Check Omit Results to set the test weight to 0 and omit all student results for this test.

    You cannot omit the results of adaptive tests.
