Ok I just took a Credit by Exam test...How many can I miss if I need to make a 90%?

Question

I know that there is 2 parts both are built the same.

(80 Multiple Choice and 2 essays total)

Part A:

40 Multiple Choice

1 Essay (WORTH 20 POINTS)

Part B:

40 Multiple Choice

1 Essay (WORTH 20 POINTS)

Answer 1

If you need to get a 90% on each test, than you can get 36/40 on each test, which would get a 90% overall. Also, a 40/40 and an 32/40 would combine to a 36/40, which is 90%

Answer 2

You must have at least 36 points to get 90%.  This means you can't get more than 8 questions wrong!

Hope you did okay!

Answer 3

if the multiple choice are one point each, then the whole test is out of 120. 90% of that would be 108. so you can miss 12 and still get an A.
