How to create a quiz with scores and different results in Makeform

Create a scored quiz for free with choice questions and a Calculation field in the form editor. Use Manage post submit actions under the last page's submit button to send each score range to a different ending.

Is it free? Yes. Answer scoring, calculation fields, and ending logic are free on every plan.

Steps

  1. Describe the quiz at makeform.ai/create, with no account needed to start. Then adjust it with AI or build it manually with + (Add form element).

  2. From Input blocks, add choice questions using Multiple Choice · Select One, Single Select, Checkboxes, or Multi Select. In each question's options, turn on Enable scoring and type the points for each answer. These points contribute to that question's .score value in calculations.

  3. Add a Calculation field, whose default label is “Total Score”. For questions named q1, q2, and q3, use:

    Text
    {{q1.score}} + {{q2.score}} + {{q3.score}}

    Set Respondent display to Hidden or Visible output.

  4. Use Add ending to create result pages, up to a maximum of 10. To show the weighted total on an ending, add a Text block containing your calculation's name, such as {{total_score}}. Alternatively, add Result Breakdown for a result based on correct-answer counts; its score is different from the weighted total.

  5. Click Manage post submit actions under the last page's submit button. In Post-submit actions > Ending logic, click Add rule. Set When field to the calculation, choose greater than, less than, or equals, enter Value, and set Go to to the result ending. Set Fallback ending (when no rule matches). The first matching rule wins.

  6. Preview and test each score range, including answers that should reach the fallback, then publish.

Choose which score to show

Your calculation adds the points assigned to answers. Use that calculation in a text block when you want respondents to see the weighted total.

Result Breakdown has controls for Show score, Show correct answers, Show explanations, Show Try again, Celebrate this result, and Mark right and wrong.

Order your result rules

Ending rules are checked in order. If a total matches more than one rule, the first match determines the ending. The fallback handles totals that match none of your rules, so include it when testing the result ranges.

Makeform is a free AI form builder: describe what you want to collect and it builds the form for you, with unlimited forms and submissions on the free plan.

FAQ

Can I give some answers more points than others?

Yes, turn on Enable scoring and enter points per option. Add each question's .score value in a calculation to get the weighted total.

Why is my result breakdown different from my total?

Result Breakdown counts correct answers rather than weighted points. To show your calculated total, use the calculation's variable in a text block on the ending.

Can respondents see different results based on their score?

Yes, use ending rules based on the calculation field. Choose a result ending for each rule and set a fallback for totals that match no rule.

How many result pages can I add?

You can have up to 10 ending pages per form. Use Add ending to create them, then assign them in ending logic.
