Hello tek folks,

I have a report that includes 10 questions each question is scored as follows:

=Count([Question]) to give the [Total Responses]
=SUM(IIf([Question]="yes,1,0)) to give the [Total correct]
=[Total Responses]/[Total correct] to give the percent

I need an overall score for the 10 questions. A percent aggregate score.

How can I average all of the percents to get an overall average percentage score???
 
How about the average function Avg()?

"Don't be irreplaceable. If you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted."
 
This seems wrong to me:

=[Total Responses]/[Total correct]

Surely you want the percentage of total responses that were correct? That would be:

[Total correct]/[Total Responses] * 100

This would mean that a calculation of percentage in the report footer should give the answer you require.
