Auto Grading
Euron Systems automatically grades objective-type questions instantly upon submission. This guide explains the scoring rules, negative marking, and grade calculations.
Scoring Rules
Standard Scoring
For single-answer MCQs and True/False questions:
- Correct Answer — Full marks awarded (e.g., +4)
- Wrong Answer — Negative marks deducted if enabled (e.g., -1)
- Unanswered — No marks awarded, no deduction
Multiple Correct Answers
For multi-select MCQs:
- All Correct — Full marks
- Partial Correct (Partial Credit On) — Proportional marks (e.g., 2 out of 3 correct = 2/3 of full marks)
- Partial Correct (Partial Credit Off) — Zero marks unless all correct options are selected
- Any Wrong Option Selected — Zero marks (or negative marks if enabled)
Numerical Answers
For numerical-type questions:
- Exact Match — Full marks
- Within Range — If you set an acceptable range (e.g., ±0.01), answers within the range get full marks
- Outside Range — Zero marks
Negative Marking
Configure negative marking per test:
| Scheme | Description |
|---|---|
| No Negative Marking | Wrong answers score 0 |
| Fixed Deduction | Fixed points deducted (e.g., -1 per wrong answer) |
| Proportional | Fraction of correct marks deducted (e.g., -1/3 of +4 = -1.33) |
| Custom | Set different deductions per question or section |
Grade Calculation
Percentage Score
The default scoring method: (marks obtained / total marks) × 100
Percentile Ranking
For competitive exams, enable percentile ranking:
Percentile = (Number of students scoring below you / Total students) × 100
Section-Wise Cutoffs
For exams with sectional cutoffs:
- Define minimum scores for each section.
- Students must meet both the overall cutoff and section-wise cutoffs.
- The result shows pass/fail status for each section.
Instant Results
When enabled, students see their results immediately after submission:
- Total score and percentage
- Rank and percentile (if ranking is enabled)
- Section-wise breakdown
