How are tests graded in this program?

In this program, tests are graded according to a simple percentage, which means that students receive a score that reflects the proportion of correct answers out of the total questions on the test. This method is straightforward and provides a clear indication of a student's understanding of the material, allowing them to see their performance in quantitative terms.

Grading on a simple percentage ensures uniformity and consistency across all assessments, making it easy for students to compare their scores with the overall requirements for passing or achieving certain grades. This approach focuses solely on the actual performance of the student on the test rather than external factors or comparative performance against peers.

In contrast, other methods such as grading on a curve would adjust scores based on the overall performance of the class, while grading based on individual effort is more subjective and may vary from instructor to instructor. Peer evaluation introduces an element of feedback from classmates, which can be useful but does not typically replace the formal assessment method characterized by simple percentage grading.
