Survey scoring & calculation

A scored survey assigns points to some or all of your question choices. This adds up to a total score, or scores per section, which makes scored surveys ideal for quizzes, tests, or assessments. At the end of the survey, you can show the score and a message that’s conditionally based on that score.

What is the difference between a survey with scoring and a quiz or poll?

A scored survey is a mix between a quiz and a survey with scores allocated to answer options. It’s similar to a quiz in that you can add scores to the answer options, but unlike a quiz in that there are no right or wrong questions. For example, the quiz question “who was the first president of the United States?” only has one correct answer. Scored surveys, on the other hand, allow you to add scores to answer options to qualify leads among other things. For example, when asking “would you consider changing internet providers? Yes/No” you could add a score of 5 points to “Yes” and 0 to “No”.

Afterwards, you can put these leads in different categories and send tailored messages to each group. You can do this immediately at the end of the scored survey with personalized outcomes or with an autogenerated report. When you have the email address of the respondents you can also send personalized follow-up emails.
