Think about the mean average:

  • it is the value that every item would have if every item had the same value;
  • It is calculated by finding the sum of the values and dividing by how many values there are.

To calculate the mean of the total group of students you need to know the sum of all their values.

If you know the mean of a group you can calculate the sum of the values of the group by reversing the calculation to get the mean:

mean = sum/number of items

→ sum = mean × number of items.

You can now find the total score of the class of 57 + the extra 19 by finding the total score of the original 57 and adding the total score of the extra 19.

You now have 57 + 19 students to divide into this total.

Total original class = 89.7 × 57

Total extra 19 = 76.3 × 19

Total of all students = 89.7 × 57 + 76.3 × 19

Total number of students = 57 + 19

→ Mean of the whole group is (89.7 × 57 + 76.3 × 19)/(57 + 19) = 86.35

Would teachers or students get a better test score?

That depends entirely on what they were being tested on, and the individuals involved. If it were the subject of the class, then you would hope the teacher would score better than his or her students, but that isn't always the case, especially with adjunct professors hired to teach an unfamiliar subject three days (or less) before the class starts... which happens sometimes. Even when the teacher is a whiz, there could be a student that knows more, and just has to take the course to prove it. If it wasn't about the class, then it is up in the air depending on who is more familiar with the subject matter. idk

Should I stay in an AP class or change to regular to relieve stress?

Which class is it? I know that AP classes can be stressful and time consuming, believe me Im in 4 of them, but students learn a lot more in them. If you plan on taking the AP exam to try and get college credit then i think you should consider sticking it out. And even if you don't get a qualifying score for credit, you will have learned way more in an AP class versus regular so you will be more prepared for college. Also, colleges like to see rigorous courses taken by students. Good luck!
