# How do I view quiz results as a student?

Quiz results are easy to read in Canvas. As a student, you can see different types of quiz results, depending on your instructor's preference.

**Note:** Your instructor may be using an upgraded quiz tool called New Quizzes in your course. If the quiz you are accessing displays differently, your instructor may be using New Quizzes. Functionality may differ between these quiz types. For help with quiz results, please see [How do I view my quiz results as a student in New Quizzes?.](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Student-Guide/How-do-I-view-my-quiz-results-as-a-student-in-New-Quizzes/ta-p/289)
