The Study Quiz Calculator calculates a quiz score from the number of correct and incorrect answers, with an optional penalty for wrong answers. It reports the earned points and percentage based on the scoring rules entered.
The tool is useful for checking practice quizzes, estimating scores before official results, or understanding how negative marking changes performance. Unanswered questions can remain uncounted unless the scoring system applies a separate penalty.
1. Enter total questions
Use the full number of scorable questions.
2. Record correct answers

3. Record wrong answers
Do not include unanswered items in this field.
4. Set point values
Enter points for a correct answer and any wrong-answer penalty.
5. Read the score
Review earned points, unanswered questions, and percentage.
Earned points = (Correct × Points per correct) − (Wrong × Wrong-answer penalty) Maximum points = Total questions × Points per correct Percentage = Earned points ÷ Maximum points × 100
Earned points are not allowed to fall below zero in this calculator.
The percentage compares the points earned with the maximum possible points under the entered scoring system.
Results are planning estimates based on the values entered and may differ from school-specific grading or attendance policies.
Given: 25 questions, 19 correct, 4 wrong, 1 point per correct answer, and a 0.25-point penalty per wrong answer.
Calculation: Earned = 19 × 1 − 4 × 0.25 = 18 points. Maximum = 25 points. Percentage = 18 ÷ 25 × 100 = 72%.
Result: The estimated quiz score is 72%, with 2 unanswered questions.
They receive neither points nor a penalty in this model.
The calculator allows it, but use the actual quiz rules because such a scheme can reduce points quickly.
The tool prevents a negative displayed score for easier interpretation, although a specific test may permit negative raw scores.
Not in one run. Group questions by point value and combine their earned and maximum points separately.
This calculates one quiz. A grade calculator combines quizzes with other weighted course components.
