![candidate\_assessment\_skill\_wise\_performance.png](https://help.hackerearth.com/hubfs/Knowledge%20Base%20Import/candidate_assessment_skill_wise_performance-3.png)

In this graph, the X-axis represents the score (in percentage) that has been obtained by the candidate with respect to a specific skill. The Y-axis represents each skill along with the total number of skills available in the test. 

You can view a candidate's score for a specific skill that is added to the test. You can assess the candidate's proficiency in a skill by comparing their score to the average score obtained by all the other candidates for that specific skill in the test.

The average score is determined by calculating the average of all the scores obtained by all the candidates for that specific skill.
