Scoring

Each time you get a question right you score a point, however, you also lose a point each time you get a question wrong.

The quiz tracks your accumulated score, i.e. (number of correct answers) - (number of incorrect answers). Your accumulated score can never drop below zero.

The quiz also tracks the number of questions you have got right in a row (your consecutive score).

Levels

You achieve level 1 when your accumulated score reaches 10 and you achieve level 2 when your accumulated score reaches 20 and so on up to level 9.

You achieve level 10 when your consecutive score reaches 10 and you achieve level 20 when your consecutive score reaches 20 and so on up to level 90

Your overall level is the sum of the levels you have achieved for accumulated and consecutive scores.

The maximum score that can be achieved for a quiz is level 99.

Navigation

There are two choices when it comes to selecting which quiz to do next.

You can use the contents page to see the quizzes arranged by unit, module and topic following the pattern of your exam specification.

Alternatively, you can choose a circuit for the unit or module you wish to revise.

Circuits automate the process of moving from quiz to quiz by letting you choose to move on automatically after you have successfully answered a set number of questions or after you have spent a certain amount of time on the quiz.

Individual topics also operate as circuits, although by default the option to randomise the order of the quizzes in a topic is turned off.

The various options for controlling how a circuit or topic works can be found on the settings page.
