There's no minimum score needed to pass the membership test(s)? Interesting.

Yea, I think that's a given

Different chapters have different criteria. Tests are at the discretion of each chapter. You could get a 100% on whatever test they make and still not get initiated because you're a dick.

Whether this chapter requires 100% or is just making the OP sweat I have no idea.

He really should be studying with his pledge brothers instead of posting on the internets.

Tests aren't the ultimate decider for membership. That's typically a given.

The question was whether the NHQ has a standard (by which it allows the chapters to apply discretion). Are you saying that the NHQ has no standard and that chapters can just do whatever with the test scores?

Only three chapters at my school, you had a 33% change of guessing my affiliation

Tests can either be used or not, it's up to the chapters. If you bomb your tests, chances are you aren't that dedicated and you won't get initiated. For some chapters, tests hold a ton of weight. Others, not so much. The chapters have their own standard of what's acceptable or not. Membership selection is really complex and full of gray area.

But I'll say this, I've never met a chapter that has NOT used tests in their membership evaluation. The degree of weight it holds varies.
