SARASOTA – More than 20,700 state exams in 2015 were not graded because students did not fill out enough answers, compared with about 5,600 similarly ungraded exams in 2014.

While 20,700 incomplete exams seem like a lot, it accounts for only 0.6 percent of the more than 3.3 million tests taken in 2015.
The Florida Department of Education said there are a range of explanations for why students would have their tests scored as incomplete, such as students who fall ill during exams. There is no code for students who purposefully did not take the exam.
