[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The county altered the testing methodology to be: 1) more inclusive i.e. tests way more applicants now 2) new criteria reduces the advantage of kids who prep[/quote] It stands to reason with the larget sample that median scores are now much higher too.[/quote] Median score is very unlikely to go up when you test more people. It is certainly not going to go up now when you deny entry of all those 99% kids from the W schools. [/quote] The median would be more reliable and consistent since the sample size is what 10X larger now. [/quote] The Median score of all who tested will be more precise because of the larger sample. The median scores of those who were accepted likely went down because MCPS no longer provides them. [/quote]
