    Hi,

         I've taken the 70-284 test twice, and received scores of 665 and 612.  Since the test has 50 questions, shouldn't each answer be worth 20 points (for a total of 1000)?  Are they counting partials on some questions?  If not, how can I determine how many questions I got correct based on those two scores?  My scores on my previous three tests - each with 45 questions - were consistent (1000 / 45 * correct answers = score), but this is baffling me.

    Thanks,

    Ed

    I'd suggest you read the MS Learning site page on exam scoring -

    Thanks!  It's still a little vague (they only state "Each item, task, or simulation is worth one point, regardless of what you have to do to answer the question."), but since they may not use all 50 questions in the scoring (some may be test questions), that could account for the odd scores (49 equally valued questions come close to matching the two scores).  I guess just do better is the short answer.
