A program to grade a student who has taken a multiple choice test. (a question has 4 options to choose from)

Let's understand the problem first before we start writing.

A student takes a multiple choice test.

A multiple choice question has four options to choose from.

Only one option out of four is the correct answer.

So, the chance of the student getting an incorrect answer in a question is 3 out of 4 or 75%

and the chance of him getting the correct answer is 1 out of 4 or 25%

Therefore,

When we grade the student,

we will use this system.

If the student gets 25% or above,

The student passes the test.

If the student gets 50% or above,

The student gets credit for the course for his commendable achievement.

If the student gets 75% or above,

The student completes the course with distinction.

If the student gets 100%;

The student, of course, has completed the test/exam with full mark.

But if the student unfortunately gets lower than 25%

The student fails the test.
