The probability of getting all 10 questions right is, P(10) =(1/2)10 =0.0009765...9 questions right, P(9) =10C9 ∙(1/2)10 =10∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.009765...8 questions right, P(8) =10C8 ∙(1/2)10 ~ 45∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.043945...7 questions right, P(7) =10C7 ∙(1/2)10 ~ 120∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.1171875...The probability of passing the test with any of the grade is the sum of all theabove; P(passing)~ 0.1719 ~ 17.2%

If the examiner is feeling generous, then they would round up 130 questions correctly answered from it's actual value of 69.89% to 70&, but it might be best not to bank on that.
