How do you read the statement of marks?

What's a standardised score?
What's the normal standard deviation?
What's the weighting X Standardised score?
What's the weighted total?
Basically, how do you read it?
Also, the score obtained is doubled right, because there are two markers?

Don't worry about the first few things - they're just your score compared to other people who did the subject (plus I ceebs explaining the 68-95-99.7% rule :P  look it up if you like)

Your score for each question is doubled because two examiners mark it and it is added together.

Z = standardised score, x = your position amongst the state

Z<0 ; 0%<x<50%
Z=0 ; middle 50%
0<Z<1 ; 50%<x<84%
1<Z<2 ; 84%<x<95%
2<Z<3 ; 95%<x<99.7%
Z>3 ; x>99.7%

Do they even use this rule? idk
