The maximum score is 100 points.

85 to 100 points – You are an expert.

70 to 84 points – You sure know your LPGA facts.

55-69 points – Still quite good, but you need to brush up a bit.

40-55 points – You are a beginner, but show some promise.

Under 40 points – Maybe you should have taken the PGA test instead!
