How Your Score Is Calculated
Pillar Weighting
Pillar 1 (Internal Controls) and Pillar 5 (CDD) are weighted at 25% each. The remaining three pillars share the remaining 50%.
Per-Question Scoring
Each answer maps to a score 0–100. Pillar scores are the mean of all answered questions in that pillar.
Critical Gap Detection
Missing BSA officer, no written policy, no annual training, no independent testing, and no risk assessment are flagged as critical regardless of overall score.
Score Thresholds
0–59% — Examination Risk
Significant deficiencies. Immediate remediation required.
60–79% — Needs Improvement
Moderate deficiencies. Address before next examination.
80–100% — Exam Ready
Adequate controls. Continue monitoring and annual updates.
