Would I be graded unfairly for my oral performance?

So a quick explanation, I had to do an oral exam on Friday and I was asked questions like this: there were 5 of which I only got 1 right, meaning I got a 6. Today it was someone else's turn to do the oral exam. He had 6 questions and only 1 right and got a 5. Now I'm wondering why she got a 5 and I got a 6. We had the same number of mistakes or will it be marked differently because she had 6 questions and I had 5.

At my time, oral examinations were appropriate when there was already something in writing or one was not sure what note it was there.

You can do something here with luck.

I cannot imagine that the note consists only of the oral part or it has changed a lot in the last 20 years

This depends on the question, there are always questions that can be incorporated into the answer.

Name a Roman ruler who lived before Christ.

Answer would be a name.

Bonus, from when to when lived and why he was so famous.

The teacher then knows that the person knows about the area, he doesn't have to ask.

Secondary it is sometimes enough to know what it is about, to understand and to be able to convey that.

What is an opposition, if you can describe it directly on the basis of the current political situation, the answer would not be completely wrong, depending on the teacher even correct.

So the question is what has been asked and what answers have come and what was useful.

E.g. In math, we scored points for the computing path even if the result was wrong at the end.
