Internal Marks When the Best Two of Three Tests Count
The short answer
When the best two of three tests count, the lowest score is dropped. With 18, 21 and 22 out of 25, the best two are 22 and 21, so the tests part of a 30-mark internal is 25.8, not 24.4. Choose the best-of rule and type how many tests count.
Many colleges ask for 40. Leave 0 if there is no such rule.
