What a 4/8 grade means
- 4 correct and 4 wrong on a 8-question test.
- Each question is worth 12.5%, so every wrong answer costs 12.5 percentage points.
- Any score from 0 to 4 out of 8 is an F.
- 1 more correct (5 out of 8, 62.5%) would make it a D.
- It is below a 60% passing score, which needs 5 out of 8: 1 more correct.
How to work it out
- Divide the score by the total: 4 ÷ 8 = 0.5.
- Multiply by 100: 0.5 × 100 = 50%.
- Find 50% on the grading scale: A is 90% and up, B 80%, C 70% and D 60%, so it is an F.
