Use the Test Summary

Updated 11 Jan 2024

The Test Summary page lists the questions on a test or quiz. You select a question to open it in the player and work on it.

If you have already taken the test, you see your score at the top of the page.

At the top of the list of questions you can see scoring information:

  • Questions — The number of questions in the test.
  • Ungraded — The number of questions that your instructor needs to grade manually. For example, if you have to show your work, your instructor needs to review the question before you get a complete grade.
  • Correct — The number of questions you answered correctly.
  • Partial Credit — The number of questions for which you received partial credit.  Some programs do not give partial credit.
  • Incorrect — The number of questions you answered incorrectly.
  • Incomplete — The number of questions that you didn't complete.

For each question link, you can see:

  • The question in your textbook or Study Plan that matches this question.

    Hover over a question link to see a message that shows the question information.

    If the message says "instructor-created question," the question was written by your instructor.

  • If you have worked on the question, you see your score in parentheses to the right of the question link. The first number is your score in points and the second number is total possible points. For example, (8/10) indicates that you earned 8 of 10 points on the question.

    You see only a partial score if you had to show your work and your instructor has not yet reviewed your work. For example, if you correctly answered a question worth 1 point, you might see (0.75/1). After your instructor reviews your work, you get full credit (1/1).

  • If you have worked on the question, an icon appears to the left:

    Some programs do not give partial credit. In these programs, the partial credit icon is not shown.

  • If you need to show your work on the question, a red (sw) shows after the question. When you select the question link, you see both the question in the player and the Show Work window.
  • If the question is an essay, a red (e) shows after the question.
  • Whether your instructor has commented on your work.

    If your instructor has commented on your work, you see a comment icon next to the question. Select the question number to open the question and read the comment. If the comment doesn't pop up automatically, select View Comment.
