HTML multiple forms with 2 javascripts

first of all im new to javascript and html doing this for a requiered university project so this web development is not my strong point. Problem is:

I have 2 quiz on the same html file with 2 javascript files working for each one. 

    <form name="quiz">
    1. listen to pronunciation...<br>
    <input type="radio" name="q1" value="a">Pedro<br>
   <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
    <input type="radio" name="q1" value="b">Juan<br>
    <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
    <input type="radio" name="q1" value="c">Luis<br>
    <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
    <p>


    <input type="button" value="Get score" onClick="getScore(this.form)">
    <input type="reset" value="Clear"><p>
    Score = <input type=text size=15 name="percentage"><br>
    Correct answers:<br>
    <textarea name="solutions" wrap="virtual" rows="4" cols="40"></textarea>
    </form>

in the same html page this

       <form name="quiz2">
        1. listen to pronunciation...<br>
        <input type="radio" name="q2" value="a">Pedro<br>
       <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
        <input type="radio" name="q2" value="b">Juan<br>
        <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
        <input type="radio" name="q2" value="c">Luis<br>
        <img src="images/ANIMALES/8.png" width="100" height="100" /> <br>  
        <p>


        <input type="button" value="Get score2" onClick="getScore2(this.form)">
        <input type="reset" value="Clear"><p>
        Score = <input type=text size=15 name="percentage"><br>
        Correct answers:<br>
        <textarea name="solutions" wrap="virtual" rows="4" cols="40"></textarea>
        </form>

javascripts files are javascript1.js and javascript2.js (found those in quiz html generator)

var numQues = 1;
var numChoi = 3;

var answers = new Array(5);
answers[0] = "b";



function getScore(form) {
  var score = 0;
  var currElt;
  var currSelection;

  for (i=0; i<numQues; i++) {
    currElt = i*numChoi;
    for (j=0; j<numChoi; j++) {
      currSelection = form.elements[currElt + j];
      if (currSelection.checked) {
        if (currSelection.value == answers[i]) {
          score++;
          break;
        }
      }
    }
  }

  score = Math.round(score/numQues*100);
  form.percentage.value = score + "%";

  var correctAnswers = "";
  for (i=1; i<=numQues; i++) {
    correctAnswers += i + ". " + answers[i-1] + "\r\n";
  }
  form.solutions.value = correctAnswers;

}

and the second one

var numQues = 1;
var numChoi = 3;

var answers = new Array(5);
answers[0] = "a";


function getScore2(form) {
  var score = 0;
  var currElt;
  var currSelection;

  for (i=0; i<numQues; i++) {
    currElt = i*numChoi;
    for (j=0; j<numChoi; j++) {
      currSelection = form.elements[currElt + j];
      if (currSelection.checked) {
        if (currSelection.value == answers[i]) {
          score++;
          break;
        }
      }
    }
  }

  score = Math.round(score/numQues*100);
  form.percentage.value = score + "%";

  var correctAnswers = "";
  for (i=1; i<=numQues; i++) {
    correctAnswers += i + ". " + answers[i-1] + "\r\n";
  }
  form.solutions.value = correctAnswers;

}

However both forms always take the same answer ("a"), one is supposed to be correct answer"b", another "a", any clue what im doing wrong?

Your variables have the same names and are in the same scope. They are overriding each other.
