In REE board examination, the passing general average is 70 percent provided there is no grade below what percent in any of the three subjects?

• A. 60 percent
• B. 50 percent
• C. 70 percent
• D. 40 percent

Answer: (B)

A license board ensures not only a solid overall performance but also minimum competency in each subject. The passing general average is 70% only if every subject score is at least 50%. This single-per-subject floor prevents someone from “buying” a high average with two strong scores and one very low score. For example, a candidate could have 100, 100, and 10, which averages to 70, but fails because one subject is below 50. In contrast, scores like 70, 70, and 70 meet both requirements: the average is 70 and no subject is below 50. So the required per-subject minimum is fifty percent.
