No, knowing a student's average grade does not provide specific information about their individual test scores. The average grade is a summary measure that represents the student's overall performance across multiple tests or assignments and does not reveal details about each individual score.
that is not normal
To interpret percentile ranking you must know the percentage of the group. Arrange the scores from the highest to the lowest. Compute the percentage of people with scores below 23%, and compute the percentage of people with scores at 23%. Add the percentage of people with scores below the score to one half the percentage of people with scores at the score to obtain the percentile rank. e.g If there were 20 children with varying scores, and 23% was the only score obtained by a student; then one score is (1/20) of the class, or 5%. 2 children scored lower than 23%; so (2/20) of the scores is below 23. The child with 23% will receive a percentile rank of 2+(half of 5)=4.5%. Brenda
higher parental income causes an increase in childrens IQ scores
The average IQ for a student in the UK is around 100, which is considered to be in the normal range. IQ scores are standardized to have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
The average sat test scores are at least 1100. That is for tha average student.
Schools that support a uniform policy do not commonly have a specific name but they can be referred to as uniformed schools. As for their test scores, there has been evidence that a students test score will increase if they attend a uniformed school but it really depends on the type of student you are.
If the distribution is Gaussian (or Normal) use z-scores. If it is Student's t, then use t-scores.
there is a positive correlation between parental income and children's IQ scores
Into what kind of percentage do you want to convert it? A percentile already is some kind of percentage. It says that so-and-so many percent score above (or below) your score (or whatever score you are considering). The actual score (percentage or otherwise) can't be deduced from the percentile, unless you look it up in a table of scores. For example, if you are in the top 20 percentile in an exam, and there are 1000 students, get a list of the scores - sorted from high to low - and count the first 20% of scores - in this example, the scores for the best 200 students. The student at position #200 will be the answer.
If someone said student A got 232 out of 400 and student B got 732 out of 1500, you cannot readily compare the scores to see which student is doing better. But if we convert the two scores are converted to percent values the scores are 58 and 48.8 and it is easy to see that student A is doing better than student B
