What is a “K-Score”?

“K-score” is an abbreviation of Kapdec-score. “K-score” simply tells, what % marks you received from a quiz or an exam.

We use an adaptive algorithm. So the more difficult problems you solve, the higher will be the weightage on your earned score. your % score is based on two factors : - 

1.    the number of questions answered correctly, and

2.    the level of difficulty of the problems you answered correctly. The level of difficulty varies from one question to another, and students will score higher by answering the difficult problem.

Based on the combined value of the above two points, our system calculates your net score. This net score is called "K-score."
