# Scoring Logic

The assessment scoring system utilizes a weighted average computation scheme to score attempts. Test creators can optionally apply [weights and maximum scores](https://speaking-test-docs.speechace.com/speechace-speaking-test/speechace-workspaces-create-manage-and-share-speaking-assessments/creating-assessments/create-new-custom-assessments/custom-assessment-configurations/weights-max-scores-timers) to each question to allow level setting of the assessment.

In the following sections, we will illustrate how assessment scores are calculated under different configurations:

1. [Scoring with basic setup](https://speaking-test-docs.speechace.com/speechace-speaking-test/speechace-workspaces-create-manage-and-share-speaking-assessments/creating-assessments/scoring-logic/scoring-with-basic-setup)
