Calculating jlpt score??

[jen4321]

Does anyone know how to calculate the percentage you get from the grammar section??
I followed the formula on the pdf's and i just dont get it
Can anyone help?
I don't see where the 200 points come from....it added up to 131 possible points :S
so confused....

just calculate your % of right answers that's all I do.

ah okay....
so 35 divided by 47 x 100 = 74%
I think that's right lol, math's not my strong point and evidently neither is japanese grammar lol

Thanks!

My head is fried

The sections are weighted differently so you can't just simply say that 35/47. I think it's been

I,II,III 2
IV 3
V, VI 4

For a while now and usually works out to XXX/112. So the fill in the blank and the story questions at the end are important.

Guess it's a little late replying to this.

In general:
Goi/Moji = 1pt for sections I-IV, 2pts thereafter.
Section one score: (your points/max points)*100.

Choukai = 1pt each.
Section two score: (your points/max points)*100

Dokkai = Reading questions 5 pts, grammar questions 2pts.
Section three score: (your points/max points)*200

Passing for grades II-IV 240/400=60%
Passing for gradeI 280/400=70%

Such is my understanding.
