Hey guys, quick question about Methods weighting. Let's say:
Student A gets 30/40 for Exam 1 and 60/80 for Exam 2.
Student B gets 29/40 for Exam 1 and 61/80 for Exam 2.
So Exam 1 contributes 22% towards the study score, and Exam 2 44% (double that of Exam 1). Exam 2 also has double the number of marks of Exam 1.
Does this mean that the scores are added up together out of 120, and Student A and Student B would receive the exact same study score, because they both got 90/120? Or, because Exam 2 has a higher weighting, would Student B receive a (marginally) higher study score because they performed (marginally) better on Exam 2? Or is it something else entirely?
Sorry if this is a confusing question, and thanks in advance!
