How to Convert a Score Out of 62 to a Percentage

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a passing score out of 62?
On the standard 10-point scale, 60% is the passing threshold (a D). Out of 62, that means you need at least 38 correct to pass — 38/62 works out to 61.3%. Anything below 38/62 falls under 60% and is a failing grade.
How many questions can you get wrong out of 62 and still pass?
You can miss up to 24 questions out of 62 and still pass. Getting 38/62 correct gives you 61.3% (a D, the lowest passing grade). Miss more than 24 and you drop below 60%.
How many can you get wrong out of 62 and still get an A?
To earn an A you need 90% or higher. Out of 62, that means at least 56 correct (56/62 = 90.3%), so you can afford to miss at most 6 questions.
What is half of 62 as a percentage?
Half of 62 is 31, and 31/62 is exactly 50%. Under the standard 10-point scale that is a failing grade (F), since 50% is below the 60% passing line.
Is a score out of 62 graded on a 10-point scale?
Most US schools use the standard 10-point scale regardless of the denominator: A is 90%+, B is 80%+, C is 70%+, D is 60%+, and anything below 60% is an F. A raw score out of 62 is first converted to a percentage — divide by 62 and multiply by 100 — then mapped to a letter. Your own school's cutoffs may differ, so check your syllabus.
