I'd like to suggest an improvement to the current quiz scoring formula. Right now, categories are calculated independently (each as a percentage of its own max score), which works for some use cases but doesn't always deliver the intuitive results users expect from a personality quiz.
The issue is that this leads to totals under 100% (e.g., 90% combined), and in many cases, it results in identical percentages across categories (like ~33% each), making it impossible to clearly distinguish the dominant profile. This feels illogical for a standard personality quiz, where the goal is to identify the top-matching profile (e.g., "Profile 1 suits you best") rather than a flat distribution that muddies the outcome.
To make quizzes more versatile and user-friendly, we could either:
  • Update the default formula to use a global score normalized to 100% across all categories (summing max scores and distributing proportionally for a true personality-style result), or
-Add a toggle in quiz settings to choose between "Independent Categories" (current behavior) and "Global Personality Quiz" (normalized to 100% for clear profile differentiation).
This would align way better with common quiz expectations.
