[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread demonstrates the fact that even “so-called” intelligent Americans don’t understand basic statistics.[/quote] Standardization and equating are complex processes. There is plenty of room for error in test design. Percentiles reported by College Board are backed-into, predetermined. They are not what one thinks of as normal percentiles as you might find on a curve. The percentiles are set for the coming year's [i]future[/i] tests in September.[/quote]
