# Assessment Scoring ### Setting up Scores in your Assessment Templates When building your [Assessment Template](/knowledge-base/administrator-help-guides/assessments/assessment-templates.md) you are able to set scores on a few different field types, indicated by the trophy icon in the field menu: ![trophy\_icons](/files/e432ee511a52035c4ca8834205b049ebc9867495) As you add fields and assign the score of each field the Total Score will update as you go: ![dynamic\_score](/files/b5b04730032a47d27d85d55718a74a0b437bf447) ### Application Scoring Calculation Methods By default Application Assessment scores in Tahua are calculated as an aggregate of the individual assessment scores (i.e. a sum of the scores). If your organisation requires a different scoring calculation method for applications such as averaging or normalisation, these can be supported. Please contact if you wish to use them. ### Weighted Scoring Tahua supports weighted field scoring. Weights can be applied to fields within the assessment template by clicking on the field and setting the weight in the field settings. The image below depicts a field out of 10 having a 10 weight applied to give a (10\*10)+10 = 110 total score. ![field\_weight](/files/ddac3c9bc5d21e0aca2bf43f25eb9ec61446d9e8) If you wish to hide score weighting from the assessors when performing their assessments you can set this under Settings > Organisation > Assessment Settings by setting the "Show scores altered by field weights to Assessors" to Disabled. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
