The Categories will be scored based on the parameters assigned to it. The Overall Wellness Grade is determined by averaging the scores for each category.
 
Grading Categories With The WSS

Let's use an analogy to explain:

In school, you have History class (WSS Category: Functional Nutrition Assessment) and your grade for the class is determined by 1 test (Parameter: Visceral Fat Index).

Whereas, in Math class (Category: General Health) your grade is determined by 3 tests you take (Parameter: BMI, Fat Mass & Medical Symptom Questionnaire).

For the WSS Category: Functional Nutrition Assessment

  • There are 36 parameters in this category. If the patient grade for that category is based upon only one parameter (Visceral Fat Index), the grade will be heavily based upon that one score unless you add another parameter (test) from the same WSS Category.
 
The Wellness Score® System Grading Scale:
< 59 F
< 62.5 D-
< 67.5 D
< 70 D+
< 72.5 C-
< 77.5 C
< 80 C+
< 82.5 B-
< 87.5 B
< 90 B+
< 92.5 A-
< 97.5 A
< 100.1 A+
 
RATINGS (If you're creating your own Parameter to be measured with the Wellness Score)
 A grade of F would be rated as 0-5
 A grade of D would be rated as 6
 A grade of C would be rated as 7
 A grade of B would be rated as 8
