How to add score to your online test?
Watch how we use Calculations in Porsline to score tests, calculate performance metrics and build value-based forms without coding.
Scoring is useful for more than marking correct and incorrect quiz answers.
With Calculations in Porsline, you can assign values to responses, calculate final test scores, measure performance indicators and determine totals inside forms.
In this video, we introduce the main ways you can use Calculations and show how scores can support tests, assessments, surveys and value-based forms.
Use Calculations Beyond Simple Quiz Scores
A calculation can represent different types of values depending on your project.
You may use it to calculate:
- A test or quiz result
- An employee performance score
- A job satisfaction index
- Customer loyalty points
- A total order value
- A score used to control the next section of a form
The video uses practical examples to show how one feature can support both evaluation and transactional workflows.
What You Will See in This Video
We cover the main concepts behind Calculations in Porsline, including:
- Assigning points to selected answers
- Multiplying a value by a numerical response
- Using AND and OR conditions in scoring rules
- Calculating totals from rating and scale questions
- Building survey paths based on score thresholds
- Reviewing scores in the Results Table and Charts
This video provides an overview of how these options work together. Detailed configuration and troubleshooting will be covered separately in the Porsline Help Centre.
Apply Scores to Tests and Employee Assessments
When you create an online quiz or assessment, each correct answer can contribute a different number of points to the respondent’s final score.
You can also use scoring for recruitment tests, training evaluations and employee assessments where different responses represent different performance levels.
For broader employee feedback and performance use cases, explore our employee survey solution.
Calculations are available in Porsline Pro and Enterprise, while Enterprise also supports Calculated Variables for workflows that require several independent formulas.
Use Calculations in Orders and Value-Based Forms
Calculations can also support forms where answers represent prices or quantities.
For example, a customer may select an item, enter the quantity required and receive a calculated total before continuing to payment.
This allows the same calculation concept used for quiz scores to support order forms, registrations and other value-based workflows.
Create Different Paths Based on the Final Score
A calculated score can also influence what the respondent sees next.
For example, an internal assessment may contain Basic and Advanced sections. Respondents who achieve the required score can continue to the Advanced section, while others can be directed to a different End Page.
This combines Calculations with Logic to create a form experience that reacts to the respondent’s performance.

Review Calculated Results in Porsline
After respondents submit their answers, you can review the final score for each submission in the Results Table.
The Charts section can also help you understand overall score patterns through indicators such as averages and standard deviations.
This gives you both an individual view of each respondent and an aggregated view of the complete results.
Explore Calculations in Your Next Project
Calculations help you turn answers into meaningful values that can support evaluation, pricing and conditional workflows.
Start with one clearly defined result, decide which responses should contribute to it and use the video to understand how the different calculation options fit together.
