The difficulty listed only applies when in 3rdMIX Mode. In STEP STEP REVOLUTION, all songs will be set to SSR/MANIAC difficulty.  Not included in the table are the courses CAPRICE and ROULETTE which both have the first and second song on BASIC and the last two are set as ANOTHER. CAPRICE songs are selected randomly by the game, but the player will be able to see the selection before starting while ROULETTE songs will be kept hidden from the player until they have to play them or songs will be picked at random during the game. Another course can be created when loading a MEMORY CARD to the cabinet; the order of the songs are selected by the memory card.

The scoring system for the 3rdMIX was changed from the one used in DanceDanceRevolution to DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX. One of the main changes are that the score is not determined by large combos anymore and that the maximum possible score for one song is 10,000,000. This scoring system was used in 3rdMIX releases only. This include 3rdMIX PLUS, the two Korean versions, and [[AC_DDR_USA|DanceDanceRevolution USA]] (as it was based on 3rdMIX).

*Dancer Perfects: Base Step Score × 10 × Number of Perfects
*Dancer Perfects: Base Step Score × 10 × Number of Perfects
*Dancer Greats: Base Step Score × 5 × Number of Greats
*Dancer Greats: Base Step Score × 5 × Number of Greats
*Dancer Goods or worst: Base Step Score × 0 × Number of Goods/Worst
*Dancer Goods/Boos/Misses: Base Step Score × 0 × Number of Goods/Boos/Misses


If the life bar becomes depleted, but the song continue to play (due to Versus mode or Autofail set to off), the Base Step Score is replaced by 1.

The final formula for the dancer score is a bonus for the final note of the song:
The final formula for the dancer score is a bonus for the final note of the song:
:Final Step Bonus = 10 × [1000000 - int[1000000 ÷ (N × (N+1) ÷ 2)] × (N × (N+1) ÷ 2)]
:Final Step Bonus = 10 × [1000000 - int[1000000 ÷ (N × (N+1) ÷ 2)] × (N × (N+1) ÷ 2)]
This formula will gives its full bonus value if the step was a Perfect, half of it for a Great and 0 for a Good or worst.

;Grade
;Grade
The Grade is calculated with a different formula using Dance Points. Each note in the song has a value of two Dance Points assigned to it. When adding them all up, the result is the maximum number of possible "Dance Points" for the song. This equal to 2 × N. N still being the number of notes in the song.

The grade is then found by adding all the Dance Points calculated as follows:

*A Perfect is worth +2 Dance Points
* Perfects are worth +2 Dance Points
*A Great is worth +1 Dance Points
* Greats are worth +1 Dance Points
*A Good is worth 0 Dance Points
* Goods are worth nothing (0 Dance Points)
* A Boo will subtract (-) 4 Dance Points
* Boos will subtract (-) 4 Dance Points
*A Miss will subtract (-) 5 points
* Misses will subtract (-) 5 Dance Points


The grade letter is then matched with the closest corresponding value:
The grade letter is then matched with the closest corresponding value:
*SSS: All Perfect
*SSS: Perfect Full Combo (100% Perfects)
*SS: At least 80% Perfect and the rest Great
*SS: Full Combo with at least 80% Perfects (no Goods or below)
*S: Less than 80% Perfect and the rest Great
*S: Full Combo with less than 80% Perfects (no Goods or below)
*A: At least 80% of maximum Dance Points
*A: At least 80% of maximum Dance Points
*B: At least 64% of maximum Dance Points
*B: At least 64% of maximum Dance Points

*E: Failed
*E: Failed


A grade of SSS through S override any other grade. For a score with less than 80% of the maximum Dance Points, but with a Full Combo, the S grade overrides the B. Likewise, for a score with no Full Combo, the highest grade possible is an A.
