Quiz pass mark based on attempts

Hi All,

I have a quiz that is set to 80% pass mark and limiting users to attempts. I would want to achieve a setup where users can only pass by reaching 80% on the first go and failure to achieve this they will be subjected to a 100% pass mark. In other words I would want to achieve the set up below:

First attempt = 80% pass mark

2nd attempt = 100% pass mark.

Is there any way of achieving this?

I am using quiz template in Adobe Captivate 2017.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

    This will not be possible with the default design of quizzes and SCORM. I have a blog post about linking score for one question to attempts, not for the hole quiz but reporting was not necessary there:

    Link score to attempts in Custom questions - Captivate blog

    It was created for an older version but the principles are still the same.

    To achieve what you want, you'll need JavaScript programming or use the CpExtra widget by InfoSemantics (not inlcluded with Captivate but more than worthwhile its cost) where you can store a quiz score in a user variable to transmit later to the quizzing variables.

    Thank you Lilybiiri for responding. I have had a loo at your blog and it clearly demonstrate what needs to be done. In the interest of time, I think I will just stick to the default options.

    Many thanks
