10 × (13 + 5 + 6) = 240, the maximum printed on the sheet. Every test on this site had to reconcile that way before it shipped, and the calculator checks it again in your browser each time you open a sheet, so a wrong pick shows up immediately.

What each percentage is in marks.
ESNZ Preliminary 1C (2023) is marked out of 240, so the score you need for a given percentage is not the same as it is on any sheet with a different maximum. These are the marks to aim at on this one.
| Percentage | Marks out of 240 |
|---|---|
| 50% | 120 |
| 55% | 132 |
| 60% | 144 |
| 62% | 148.8 |
| 65% | 156 |
| 68% | 163.2 |
| 70% | 168 |
| 75% | 180 |
Every mark on this sheet is worth 0.42 of a percentage point, so the half marks a judge gives move the score by 0.21 each. A movement carrying a coefficient of 2 is worth 8.3% of the total, twice what any other movement is worth.

How many marks is an error of course under Equestrian Sports NZ rules?
Under Equestrian Sports NZ rules the first error of course costs 2 marks, the second a further 4, and the third error means elimination. Marks come off the sheet total before the percentage is worked out. That is the rule in the Rules of ESNZ Dressage, Art. 448.5 (Version 14, effective 1 Aug 2026), and the calculator applies it automatically. Rules get revised, so where your rule book or sheet differs, the sheet is right. On this sheet that first error costs 2 marks out of 240, which is 0.83 percentage points off the final score.
