Definition of Custom Score

Custom score allows you to set the weight distribution for each question when creating a test. The total score is calculated based on the weight distribution of each question. The total score is displayed as the weighted average of each question's score, based on the weight distribution set for each question at the time of creating the coding test.

Below are examples of weighting and scoring, along with the calculation method.

Weighting Example:

・Weight for Question 1: 5
・Weight for Question 2: 2
・Weight for Question 3: 3

Score Example:
・Score for Question 1: 100%

・Score for Question 2: 40%

・Score for Question 3: 70%

Calculation Method:

・The sum of the weights: 5 + 2 + 3 = 10

・Score for Question 1: 100% × 5 / 10 = 50%

・Score for Question 2: 40% × 2 / 10 = 8%

・Score for Question 3: 70% × 3 / 10 = 21%

・Total Score = 50% + 8% + 21% = 79%

The total score is displayed as 79%.

The scoring distribution at the time of candidate acceptance will be reflected, so even if the scoring distribution of the coding test is changed later, it will not affect the scores of tests that have already been accepted.

Use Cases:

This feature can be used when you want to change the weight distribution of scores for each question.

By default, all weights are equal.

For example, if you want to create a test consisting of two questions, where the first question measuring basic knowledge is weighted at 40%, and the second question measuring coding skills is weighted at 60%, you can calculate the automatic scoring results accordingly.

This allows you to calculate the total score of candidates relative to the questions you want to prioritize more, thereby enabling you to produce relatively higher total scores for candidates who perform well in the questions you consider more important.
