### Grading Questions

In a Quiz, the following question types are automatically graded: MCQ, MCA, Cloze, Match, Categorize, Transcription and Autograded text.

For grading other question types:

1. Go to **Individual Analytics** in the **Analytics** section. 
2. Find individual submissions of the test takers from the dropdown menu for **Search Users**.
3. If a test taker has attempted a question that cannot be graded automatically, you will see the number of such questions under the **Ungraded** column. Questions which do not have points assigned to them will not be counted as ungraded questions.
4. You can set the **Filter** to **Not Graded Yet** to view all the ungraded questions for a particular user.
5. The ungraded questions will be highlighted in yellow and marked as **Not Graded Yet**.
6. Click on the pencil icon to grade the question.

### Finalizing scores

After you finish grading all the questions for a submission, click the **Finalize Score** button. You can change scores later even after you finalize them. 

### Releasing Scores

In Quiz settings, you will see the following options for **'When do test takers see the results?'**

1. Immediately, on Submission
2. When Individual Score is Released
3. When all Scores are Released
4. They never see the results

- **Selecting Immediately, on Submission**

For all quizzes with automatically graded questions only, the test takers will see the percentage scored as soon as they submit the test. If the test has questions that cannot be automatically graded, the test takers will see not graded yet on the result page immediately after submitting the quiz. Once you finalize score for individual submission, grades will be automatically released.

- **Selecting When Individual Score is released**

Once you have graded all questions, use the **Release Score** to publish results for each submission.
