I am writing an exam with the exam class, and I am including a single question where the students are supposed to choose only half to answer. There are six total parts, and they answer three.
I automatically calculate the points for each question using
\qformat{Question \thequestion{} (\totalpoints{} \points ) \hfill}
I am displaying the points for each question, as well as the total for the exam, in a table. I can manually get the correct number of total points using \settabletotalpoints{100}
But can I get the specific question's total to show up in the table as only half? I could imagine a solution that simply excluded a given part or question from the total calculation. Is there a way to do that?
\documentclass[addpoints,10pt]{exam}
\begin{document}
\qformat{Question \thequestion{} (\totalpoints{} \points ) \hfill}
\settabletotalpoints{100}
\gradetable[h][questions]
\begin{questions}
\question
This is the question. Do only one of part A or B. Your choice. Don't do both.
\begin{parts}
\part[100]
This is part A.
\part[100]
This is part B.
\end{parts}
\end{questions}
\end{document}
\documentclass{...}
and ending with\end{document}
.
