:cry: I guess I'm still not quite sure how the scoring works.

First time I had V50 (86%) Q33 (69%), overall score = 700 (88%)
Second time I had V50 (86%) Q35 (76%), overall score still = 700 (88%)

Basically I got lucky the first time and less luckier this time because the overall score is kinda random?

Please advise.

The score is not random. The sectional scores you see (50, 33, 35...) are not as accurate as the scores from which the total score is derived. So for example, it is possible that you got a "high" Q50 last time, and a "low" Q50 the second time.
