Mark Distribution

A mark distribution is a component that an exam's total is made up of, such as 1st C.A., 2nd C.A. or Exam. Open Exam Center → Exam → Mark Distribution.

  • Add each component your school uses. When you created your school, the components for your chosen assessment pattern were added for you.
  • The list shows which exams and papers use each component, and whether marks have been entered against it.
Renaming a component changes its name everywhere it appears, including report cards already issued. A component that has marks entered against it cannot be deleted.

How exams use them

Each exam picks the components that make up its total, and gives each a full mark and a pass mark. See Exam Setup.
