chrisword87 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Hi everybody!:) I have a question about the scoring method of the Reading Section, and I apologize if someone else already asked this. I'm doing some model tests, and the last question of a section - typically the most difficult ones - is worthy 2 to 4 points, instead of just ones. But how does it actually count, in the final score? I mean, if I do it right and it is a 4 points question, I should add 4 points to my total instead of one? To make it clearer: let's suppose i've got three reading tasks, 13 questions each, so the higher possible score is a classical 39. Considering that the last questions of all the three parts is 2 points instead of 1, someone, in theory, can score "42/39", which means that even missing a pair or questions I can still get the maximum OR have I got to calculate the score out of 42 instead of 39? thanks a lot in advance.

Masy900 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) It depends to the form of question and the total points that it has. In the question of Organizing Information which has 3 or 4 points: In case of 4 point questions: > 7 correct answers 4 points > 6 correct answers 3 points > 5 correct answers 2 points > 4 correct answers 1 points > 0-3 correct answers 0 points In case of 3 point questions: > 5 correct answers 3 points > 4 correct answers 2 points > 3 correct answers 1 points > 0-2 correct answers 0 points In the question of Summarizing Important Ideas which has 2 points: this question has 2 points: > 3 correct choices 2 points > 2 correct choices 1 points > 0-1 correct choice 0 points I hope it helps. Good Luck! Masy Edited October 28, 2011 by Masy900 format Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmarcom Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 Hello, chrisword87! I had that question too; I reviewed it from DELTA and it says that you just add points, yes... However, I am not sure yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
