Mathematical Formula & Grading Methodology

EasyGraderLab uses standard pedagogical rounding algorithms to eliminate fractional calculation discrepancies across tests of any size.

Step 1: Calculate Correct Answers Correct Answers = Total Questions - Wrong Answers
Step 2: Percentage Calculation & Rounding Score Percentage = Round((Correct Answers / Total Questions) × 100)

Our calculation engine applies standard half-up rounding (e.g. 89.5% rounds up to 90% A-), ensuring consistent, fair grading standards across all class sections. For course-wide GPA impact, check our GPA Calculator.

Frequently Asked Questions About EZ Grader

How do I calculate a test grade from missed questions?

Subtract wrong answers from total questions to find correct answers, divide by total questions, and multiply by 100: ((Total - Wrong) / Total) × 100.

How does standard half-up rounding handle borderline scores like 89.5%?

Under standard academic half-up rounding, a score of 89.5% rounds up to 90% (A-). If your school requires floor rounding, you can select 'Round down' to keep 89.5% at 89% (B+).

Can I award half points for partial credit on student answers?

Yes! Toggle the 'Allow half points' checkbox to adjust wrong answers in 0.5 increments, allowing precise scoring for multi-part questions.

How does the session Class Tally work and is student data saved?

The Class Tally records scores and grades for your current grading session directly in your browser. No student names or data are ever sent to a server or stored remotely.
