Scored quizzes are designed to calculate a total score based on the answers selected by the user. Each answer can be assigned a point value—positive or negative—and the final score is automatically calculated when the quiz is submitted. This type of quiz is ideal for evaluating knowledge, segmenting leads, or delivering personalized results based on score ranges.
In this guide, you’ll learn how to create a scored quiz using Woorise, including how to assign point values, define score-based outcomes, configure grading options, and display the user’s final score or result.
Create the quiz questions
- For your quiz questions, you’ll need to use the Quiz field under the Form > Advanced Fields.
- When you create a quiz field, you’ll first need to create the question. You may find it helpful to give each question a description as well.
- Next, choose your quiz field type and enter your options. Your options are radio buttons, checkboxes, or a drop down.
- If your question has a correct answer, click the check mark next to that option. This is how Woorise knows how to score your quiz. For example, you might designate one option as the correct answer so you can reject participants who select something different.
- If your question doesn’t have a clear answer, you may want to give each option a weight. For example you might award people with more experience more weight.
- Once you’re happy with your question, make sure to check the Required box at the bottom of the quiz field settings so users have to provide an answer before submitting. Repeat this process with your other quiz questions and Save your form.
Quiz question options
- Use Image Choices: Allows you to use images as selections.
- Randomize order of choices: Randomize the order in which the answers are displayed to the user. This setting affects only the quiz front-end. It will not affect the order of the results.
- Enable Answer Explanation: The Answer Explanation is shown to the user if Instant Feedback is enabled in the form level Quiz settings. The explanation will be shown immediately after answering each question. You can also display the explanation with the quiz results on your form’s confirmations or notifications via merge tags (i.e. {quiz:id=1} or {all_quiz_results}),
Scoring rules
Normal scoring is a simplistic right or wrong grade for each question. Weighted scoring allows you to specify different scores for each possible answer. For example, you could make one question worth 3 points for the correct answer, or even make wrong answers be a negative score. This affects how percentage score is calculated, so we have added some examples here to show you how it works.
Normal scoring rules
Under normal (non-weighted) scoring, a correct answer (the answer identified in settings with the checkmark/tick) counts as 1, and an incorrect answer as 0. As such, the percentage score will be the percentage of correct answers.
Questions hidden by conditional logic at the time of quiz submission will still be counted in scoring calculations. They register as an incorrect answer.
If a multiple choice question has multiple correct answers, then a user must select them all for the question to be presented as correct (e.g. in the results summary).
Weighted scoring rules
Total score available for a question
This total score available for a weighted score quiz question depends on the Quiz field type used. Calculated as follows:
- For a single-choice Quiz field type, the total score available is defined as: Value of the highest scored answer.
- For a multi-choice Quiz field type, the total possible is different: Sum of all positive scores assigned to answers.
This means that for a single answer question with multiple scores, the user may get 100%, even when selecting an incorrect answer, if that incorrect answer was weighted with the same (or greater) score as the correct answer.
The “correct” answer marker has no affect on weighted scoring, but does affect the display of correct and not-correct summaries in the quiz results.
0% quiz floor
Percentage score for a quiz can never be less than 0%, and will be rounded up to 0.
Hidden question scoring
Questions hidden by conditional logic at the time of quiz submission will still be counted in scoring calculations. They register as an incorrect answer.
Randomize quiz questions
Optionally you can use the Randomize feature that allows you to randomize quiz questions order or display a subset of questions from a larger pool. Please visit this help guide to learn more.
Configure confirmations & notifications
In the confirmation messages (thank you pages) you can give your users feedback about their submission. You can also create email notifications if you want to send an email to the participant with their quiz results.
The Quiz field comes with several merge tags you might find useful. These can be used anywhere within Woorise forms where merge tags are supported, but they’re primarily used to output results in confirmations and notifications.
{all_quiz_results}– Displays all the results of the quiz fields in the form.{quiz_score}– Displays the number of correct quiz answers.{quiz_percent}– Displays the percentage of correct quiz answers.{quiz_grade}– Displays the grade the user achieved if the form uses letter grading.{quiz_passfail}– Displays either “passed” or “failed” if the form uses pass/fail grading.
Additionally you can create multiple confirmation messages and display them based on the total quiz score or any other rule.
View quiz results
While it’s possible to view your quiz participants’ results under Entries page, the Reports > Quiz page is a better way to view all that data.
This analytics page gives you a high level view of the form’s submissions in an easy-to-understand format. You can even filter this data based on date and field selection.
Quiz results are calculated dynamically on request, as such, if you change the correct answer (or the weighted score) on a question, all past Quiz Results will be re-calculated when viewed again, which may vary from what was previously presented in the results dashboard, or to the user at
