[Assessment] Unable to get highest score if getting all correct #1098

Open burrage opened 7 months ago

burrage commented 7 months ago

GSU mentioned the highest score one can get is 980 (/1000) because the algorithm to skip buckets kicks in after 4 questions correct on the final bucket.

We should also test the lowest score case as well to make sure it is possible to get a score of 0.

Ben to clarify if someone in the bottom-most or top-most buckets should end up answering every question OR if in the scoring we round up (or down) to a perfect score (or a 0).

George tested that you can get a 0 score.

Tinsley clarified that we want to round up to get a perfect score.

How we're going about this...

bburrage 2:12 PM Or would it be better to just make a conditional clause in the scoring section that if the basal = maximum number of buckets and someone passes the bucket (if num_correct >= 4), just give them the maximum score?

george 2:12 PM Yeah, that works just fine too, Ben! 2:13 That's exactly what I had in mind originally actually, awesome, will do that, I'll update the dev branch!

Moved this over to GSU folks for testing more.
