Quiz Fundamentals 1.1 - Classifications of TouchStudents have a designated amount of time to complete quizzes/tests equivalent to the amount of time given on the National Examination MBLEx of 1.2 minutes per question. If student has not completed the quiz/test in the allocated time, all incorrect answers will be marked as such. Example: Test A is 100 questions. Student answers 50 questions and gets 5 incorrect. The student will earn a 45% on that quiz/test (50 minus the 5 they missed minus the 50 they did not answer = 45) Online students must receive an 75% average in quizzes/tests in order to progress to the next topic. Students must retake quizzes until their average score reaches 75%. Example: Student A receives a 40% on Test 1, 80% on Test 1 the 2nd time, and a 90% on Test 1 the 3rd time. Student A would not be able to progress because their average score is 70% (40% + 80% + 90% = 210/3 =70%). Student A would have to retake the test a 4th time and achieve a grade of 90% or higher to progress; (40% + 80% + 90% +90%= 300/4 =75%). Students are encouraged to begin quizzes/tests ONLY AFTER they are sure they comprehend the information presented. If a student gets lower than a 75% twice, they should email grading@schooloftmt.com BEFORE taking it a 3rd time to obtain help.
