Some exams submitted in Blackboard are scored automatically. Other exams—like those that include short-answer, essay, or file response questions—will need to be reviewed and scored by your instructor before a total score will be provided.
After the exam score is released, you will be presented with your results based on the options selected by your instructor. At times, you may only see your score or you may be allowed to see which questions you answered incorrectly and feedback.
Once the score is released to students, you can review your test results by either using View Grades or from the test itself if it is still available.
The steps for both methods are included below.
To review test results through the Test link:
Click on the Test link.
Click the Begin button to launch the Test Previously Taken page.
Click on the OK button.
The exam and its results will display.
To review test results through View Grades:
Look for the Test for which you want to review the results. Click on the grade/score you’ve received for that test to go to the View Attempt Page.
Click the grade in the Calculated Grade column to view your exam attempt.
The exam and its results should display.
Important Note:
You can only view your answers and the correct answers if your instructor has enabled these feedback option on your exam.
If these options have not been enabled, the Calculated Grade link will not allow you to view the test questions and/or answers.
