I passed NC3 today with a B! 2 down, 4 to go! I don't quite understand how Excelsior figures out there letter grades. It just seems that the letter grades they give you don't quite add up to that. Anyone know how they figure them out exactly?

Congrats!! I'm taking NC3 next week. :)
I haven't been able to figure out how the final grade is determined, based on looking at the sheet that breaks down your scores by area. I'm thinking it's a combination of weighting certain questions, certain parts making up more of the test, and not including the non-scored questions ... it's weird, isn't it?
Good luck!
It is weird how they figure it out. But i'm sure you're right. Just seems like I shouldn't have even passed with my scores...I thought the same with NC1 as well. It would be interesting to find out how they determine your grade.
