[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people (or is it the same person) keep saying "above the 99th percentile"? There is no ABOVE the 99th percentile...that's not how percentiles work. There is a fairly wide range of raw scores within the 99th percentile, but there is no going above it. Come on, people. It doesn't elevate your kid to exaggeratedly say untrue stuff. [/quote] Decimals are hard. 99.3% is above 99.1%. 99.9995 is a unicorn. Stop working with integers. [/quote]
