Re: [MW:30173] Re: API 570 CBT RESULT.

Hi Raghu, 

Can you confirm that the results are still based out of 550? Does this have to do with the 25 questions not counted on the test? 

Thank you

Hello

I got final official score today, it says 414 and pass. no percentage of modules, just color graphs. So, passing score was 400 and I got 414, how many questions is equivalent to this score?

Thanks

Scaled Scoring

The purpose of scaled scores is to report scores for all candidates on a consistent scale by taking the raw score and calculating it to a common scale. This method ensures that scores can be fairly and accurately compared across various versions of exam forms or tests taken on different dates.  In other words, the total number of correctly answered questions that correspond to the passing scaled score may be slightly different per form. Following the credentialing industry's best practices, API also utilizes multiple forms during the same exam period. To achieve comparability within these forms, API has implemented scaled score reporting for all exams.

In order to ensure uniformity, the same scale is used across all ICP exams. Prometric uses a scale from 200 to 500 to accommodate all test lengths for ICP certifications. The passing scaled score for all exams is 400, which takes into account previous exam data of raw scores and percentage of correct answers. Scaled scores on different forms will be equivalent and interchangeable. This means that if two candidates taking different forms receive the same scaled score, the two candidates have achieved the same level of performance on the exam. Score reports emailed to candidates will not include number of questions answered correctly but their converted scaled score.

Can you tell little bit more about scaling?

Anyone know how will this new grading scale work? It's a scoring scale that's 200 to 500 and you need a 400 and above to pass API exam.
