The midpoint in a set of scores is the value that divides the data into two equal halves, also known as the median. To find the midpoint, the scores are arranged in ascending order, and if there is an odd number of scores, the median is the middle value. If there is an even number of scores, the midpoint is the average of the two middle values. The midpoint provides a measure of central tendency, giving insight into the distribution of the data.

When there are two modal scores in a set of data, it is called a bimodal distribution. This means that there are two values that occur most frequently in the data set.
The median is the midpoint of the data set. So half the observations are greater than the median and half are smaller.
