Possibility of Study Score Calculator?

<< < (8/9) > >>

ninwa:
I think you're talking about an ENTER calculator. They're working on a study score calculator. It's different :)

kingmar:
This side project is on hold while I have exams, so I don't have anything at the moment.

This is not for me. I don't think anyone understands. I can already guess reasonably accurately my scores, so I don't care.

This is intended to be a solution to all the "predict my study score! plz plz plz i'll give you candy" kind of threads that spam the forums. A lot of people want to know, so if something could be devised that addresses it, wouldn't that be good?

I'm not stupid. Don't I know that I'll get the same scores whatever I do?
I repeat, this is NOT ABOUT ME, it's about THOSE THAT WANT TO KNOW SCORES.

Read the WHOLE topic before you make premature judgements. If you have nothing constructive to say, don't say it. I'll do my work when I'm through with exams and I'll post what I end up discovering.

Until then, wait on. Only 6 days until I'm done with chinky-chi-cho.

I've been writing this calculator, and we can see valid results for a 30 score:

Why'd you take a screenshot of text instead of copy-and-pasting it? :P
Edit: Ewww, spaces for indentation in the .cpp file  :shock:. Hard tabs FTW ;)

Foxit can save PDFs as .txt files?
I've been copying and pasting stuff from PDFs to get the text from them! :P

I spent two hours on it tonight.

At the moment, based on rough guesses and my Accounting scores (and some guy's BM marks), I still need to adjust some values...

I will post an excel spreadsheet when I work out the true values. I'm getting there...

Otherwise, just sit tight with this.

Mystery:

--- Quote from: "kingmar" ---Funny. We both get the same results.

I couldn't write jack for DOS programs.

If you look at the proportions, the distributions are NOT normally distributed. That's why it must all be manually inputted.

I'm sure you'll find the French Exam scores are a little too high as well. As long as all your code is correct, I'm sure that's the issue. That's why assumptions are no good.

To be honest, I suspect VCAA do their own twiddling in the meantime. I'm certain that even with crap exam scores, I can still do well because I suspect they take your OTHER studies into account when moderating your scores.

i.e. I get average 45 in all my subs except a 30 in methods.
VCAA inexplicably lift my methods score to 33. Why? Because of the moderating process.

They don't tell you everything, though... So yes, it is difficult. That's what real data can help you with.

EDIT: I might do some more research into the grading process undertaken by VCAA. This looks like an interesting side project.

does that mean, if you do badly in 4 of your subjects but the other 2 are good e.g: 45, 45, 25, 25, 20, 20
then your 45's will go down to like 42 or something?

So much for moderation....
