What is a 100 smart score on IXL? ›

A skill is mastered when the SmartScore reaches 100, but the number of questions it takes to master a skill varies with every student. To continuously motivate students, IXL recommends setting other practice milestones along the way to mastery. A score of 80 is proficient, and a score of 90 is considered excellent.

From 70-90, students are refining their skills and building from mid-level to high-level rigor questions. By the time a student reaches a SmartScore of 90, they have achieved “excellence” by showing they are consistently capable of working through high-rigor questions.

For parents and kids, IXL makes learning fun and enriches at-home learning with built-in support for each child's individual learning journey. Kids have answered over 140 billion questions on IXL.

Infinite! There are over 8,500 skills and unlimited computer-generated questions, so there's always fresh and compelling content! With IXL's unique scoring algorithm, questions adapt to the student's skill level to ensure the student is constantly challenged and engaged.

As always, a diagnostic level indicates a student's working grade level—for example, a level of 800 indicates readiness to work on eighth grade level skills.

For example, a score of 650 indicates that the student has acquired about 50% of 6th-grade material, whereas a score of 700 indicates that the student is ready to learn 7th-grade material.

Fourth grade is displayed as Level F.

Diagnostic scores on IXL correspond to grade levels. A score of 500 indicates readiness to begin working on 5th grade skills. As soon as a student has finished diagnosing, you'll have immediate insights waiting for you in IXL Analytics.

For example, a score of 350 indicates that a student understands about 50% of 3rd-grade material and a score of 400 indicates readiness to begin working on 4th-grade skills. These levels range from 0-1300, with 0-50 representing pre-K, 50-100 kindergarten, and 1300 representing the end of 12th grade.

Inadequate Feedback: While IXL provides immediate feedback on incorrect answers, it often lacks detailed explanations or alternative strategies for solving problems. This limits students' ability to learn from their mistakes and hinders their overall growth.

How stressful is IXL? ›

With IXL, it is possible to never be done with homework. If a student is required to get to a SmartScore of 85 and are struggling with a concept, it would take them far longer to complete than the 20 questions of book work. Some students of BAMS agree that IXL is causing them too much stress.

IXL is more than just a learning platform—it's a trusted companion for educators worldwide. From our innovative approach to personalized learning to our unwavering commitment to student success, IXL has become an indispensable tool in classrooms everywhere.

I have had 5TH GRADERS start crying in frustration over this site. The main problems are it does not encourage students to learn, the point system is unfair, and is destroys a students self esteem. I have had many of my students tell me "ixl makes me feel dumb...".

IXL is proven to help schools drive academic gains for English language learners at all levels. From real-time assessment insights to personalized practice, IXL helps your ELL students build confidence and become proficient in academic language.

IXL and Kumon are both excellent online learning platforms that can help students improve their skills in a variety of subjects. However, there are some key differences between the two platforms that may make one a better fit for you than the other. IXL is online video-based and Kumon is in center tutoring.

Here's how IXL defines each category: Mastered -- student has a SmartScore of 100. Excellence -- student has a SmartScore of at least a 90. Practiced -- student has answered at least 1 question and the SmartScore is less than 90.

The SmartScore ranges from 0-100, but it is not a percentage score.
