Re: CCNA scoring [7:10407]

2001-07-02 Thread David L. Blair

Same way as the CCNA and the passing score varies.  Normally ,around 700 +
or - 10.


  Anyway before I digress any further I just wanted to know how the grading
 worked on the CCNP and the scores required to pass.

 The scoring is not weighted or curved; that is, your score is not based
upon
 others' score or giving certain questions more weight. It's kind of weird
 the way Cisco figures your score. As soon as you pay your $100, you have
 scored 300 points. If you get 0 questions right, you get a 300/1000. If
you
 get them all right, you get a 1000/1000.

 Your Cisco score = 300 + (number right/65) * 700

 So, with your 946, you missed 5 questions out of 65. You scored roughly
 92.2%. You need to score 51/65 (78.5%) to pass.

  I passed CCNA yesterday with a 946/1000(there is no integer divisible by
 65
  that would give me this score so I know its curved).  I did not think I
 was
  doing well throughout the exam yet I got a good score. When it started,
I
  was  told that you need 849/1000 based on a score that ranges between
300
  and 1000. So is this graded on a curve? If I got 3 wrong would my score
be
  62/65= 954/1000? I don't think it works that way. I overstudied thinking
I
  needed at least 55/65 to pass but I do not think this was the case. Why
  would they grade on a curve? If you can't answer 85% of the questions I
  think you should fail.  Are the CCNP exams graded on this weird scale
and
 as
  easy to pass as well? I recieved my MCSE a few months ago and honestly
 think
  the scenario questions on  those test were harder than any of the
 questions
  on th CCNA.Coming from a Computer Science background at Rutgers, I can
  guarantee the midterms and finals on my networking courses there were
100
  times more challenging than these exams.I barely needed a pen and paper

I think you're a fake!  CCNA # 3,324,567,892 is my number! ;-)

Interesting question you pose.  Since I don't know I won't venture a guess
on the grading system.  Be interesting to see if someone knows for sure.
