Scorecard breakdown — what each number means
Your scorecard will provide a detailed breakdown of your performance. Here’s what to expect:
- Total Score: This is the sum of all correct answers, with +1 point awarded for each correct answer and no negative marking for incorrect answers.
- Sectional Scores: If applicable, you may see scores for different sections of the exam, indicating your strengths and areas for improvement.
- Pass/Fail Status: Clearly indicated on your scorecard, this will inform you whether you have met the passing criteria set by the DOH.
Percentile vs raw score
Understanding the difference between raw scores and percentiles is crucial:
- Raw Score: This is the actual number of questions you answered correctly. It is straightforward and reflects your performance directly.
- Percentile: This score compares your performance with that of other candidates. For instance, a percentile of 85 means you scored better than 85% of the test-takers. This metric can give you insight into your standing relative to peers.
Normalisation method (if applicable)
Currently, there is no standard normalisation method applied to the HAAD / DOH Nursing Licensing Examination. Candidates are evaluated based on their raw scores without adjustments. However, it’s advisable to stay informed through the official DOH notifications as policies may change.
