What do u think u'll get?

[golids]

110+ i'm guessing

don't think i dropped a mark on exam 1 except possibly that anti diff q

exam 2 i know i stuffed up 2 q which were worth 5 marks total IIRC

ah well, at least no more methods

btw what raw ss would i be looking at cheers in advance

[kido_1]

Probably 45

Man I am so pissed I put probability of p=3.414. #$#^$%$^%#$(Pr always <1).

cheers

after exam 1 was hoping to get a 47/48 but id certainly take a 45

[kido_1]

You never know, you might fluke that 47/48....

lol, the poll results seem to be opposite to the normal distribution.

[kido_1]

Very skewed

[golids]

Very skewed

was going to say an inverted normal graph :lol:

separately.
 for each result, VCAA calculates your standardized score.
i.e. just say you scored 22/40 for exam 1, and the median was like 21, your z-score (standardized score) will be just above zero. (we learnt this in methods). just assume your z score for exam 1 was 0.0112845
and then with the z-score they multiple it with the % it is worth
so 0.0132845 X 22%
(called weighting X standardised score)
They do that for all the components of the study score.
Add it up altogether to give your weighted total.
and just say you end up with something like 1.051251... is equivalent to a 36 study score. get me?

Thanks mate

Now I get it. (Btw, do you know what sort of standardised score you would need to get to get a 45-50?)

well you can kinda work it out cant you? z = (x - u)/sd (the equation we learnt in methods for standardised score)
