Title: Answer me this
Post by: gandalf on October 30, 2011, 06:35:24 pm
okayy soooo, someone let me know if this sounds correct?

so a 30 ss is the state avg or median, yes?
and in order to achieve this, you must get marks that are at the state avg
i.e the midyear avg mark was a C+, so assuming you got a C+ and avg for sac marks and end of year exam....you should end up with a 30 ss?

now is that 30 raw or scaled?
doesn't chem get scaled up like 4-6?
so if it's raw, does that mean you'll end up wit a 35-ish study score, scaled, if you recieve avg marks for chem?
If not, someone tell what needs to happen for a 35 scaled!

30 ss is state average and median, this is raw.
and in order to achieve this you would need to get around state average for each GA.

If you get middle of state for chem, you will get 30 raw, about 34-35 scaled.

Mean Score in the State = Mean Scores for Exams = 30 Raw

YESHHH

so check this out.
i got C for midyear, probably a really low one.
so thats below avg
but sac marks are like 85%ish, so mid A
and pretty confident with mid year, so im aiming an A
would this equate to 32ish raw, scaled to 36? 37 even?
