MCQ - all correct answers must be chosen or 0% score for that question

We have a requirement for a multiple choice question (more than one answer) that has 5 answers of which 3 are correct.

Conventionally you would give 33.333% for each correct answer and 0% for each incorrect.

However the scoring approach we wish to take is that the submitted answer is only correct - 100% when all 3 correct answers and 0 incorrect answers are chosen.

If there is any variance from this - less than 3 correct or any incorrect answer, then the score is 0 for that question.

Has anyone else out there met this requirement or have any bright ideas about how to go about this?

Many thanks in advance...

We have a very similar requirement, and the only solution appears to be the All or Nothing plugin: https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/CONTRIB/component/10704 or https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=192465, not sure which is most up to date.

Used on Totara 2.2 and works fine, pretty sure I had to use the version downloaded from the moodle thread above but was a while ago that I installed it.

Thanks Dan!

I'll look into installing that into our test site and review. Sounds ideal.

We are on 1.9 but it looks like there is a version for us too.
