This question was considered in an attempt to achieve what I want: Create a "choose between " questions with exam class
Background: I'm a math teacher with (very) mixed ability classes. I would like to be able to add "choose between A or B" (or C) questions to my tests, where A gives less credit than B.
Consider the MWE
- I would like to have only the third question to add to the sum of points.
- It would be nice if the grading table would include all three parts with their points, such that I can fill in the score the student achieved at the question he/she chose.
This MWE is very minimalistic, I honestly have no idea how I'm going to achieve this.
\documentclass{exam}
\begin{document}
\begin{questions}
\question Choose one of the three following questions
\begin{parts} % only the third part should add to the total sum of points
\part[1] Option 1
\part[2] Option 2
\part[3] Option 3
\end{parts}
\end{questions}
\end{document}

manual and I am not sure, that your request can be fulfilled. Thecode
design does not provide for such a feature of optional questions and listing the credits selectively in the table; at least, I did not find it in the manual.
