The first thing to do is to solve the difficulty index in each item and the variance of the total scores,

P=n/N, where

n=number of students who got the correct answer in each item

N=number of students who answered each item

q=1-p

Solve for the variance of the scores

s=nx- n(x)/n(n-1)

n=number of items

x=summation of the square of (x)

x=summation of (x)
