90th percentile is simple another way of saying that 9% scored above and 90% scored below (the other 1% being the number 90).
For example, if you take a type of standardized test in high school, if you do well, you are at the 90th percentile, meaning 90% of students scored lower than you and 9% scored better. You can not be in the 100% percentile, because you cannot score better than yourself.
It means that the value of the observation is in the highest ten percent. Whether that is good or bad depends on the context.

First, an IQ test of only ten questions is not going to be very accurate. One out of ten would be the 90th percentile. Which would be somewhere around 125.
That would be ninetieth.
A score of 121 puts you in about the 90th percentile of all other eleven year olds, which means that you scored higher than 90 percent of all other kids your age if you were tested professionally by someone who is qualified as in a psychologist or psychometrist.
That's right, the 90th percentile is the top 10%.
6'1 1/2" is the 90th.
0.90 x 8 = 7.2 0.90 = 90/100 (90th percentile) 8 = 8 samples 7.2 has to be rounded to the nearest even no...ie. 8 so the 8th result is the 90th percentile value
For a complete definition of Percentile see the related link. A percentile is the value of a variable below which a certain percent of observations fallThe 90th percentile is typically the point at which 10 percent of the highest scores fall.If you assume that scores are out of 40, and that they are evenly distributed (an unlikely event in real life), then the 90th percentile is all scores above 36.
It is 1.28
Raw scores in the 70s or 80s correspond to the 90th or 95th percentile.
It means that the value of the observation is in the highest ten percent. Whether that is good or bad depends on the context.

Yes. It is a very good score for a seventh grade and is approximately equivalent to the 90th percentile for a sophomore.
ca. 9 % has an higher IQ.... (IQ 119 90th percentile equals top 10%)
Put them in ascending order. There are 20 numbers. 90% of 20 is 18 so the 90th percentile is the 18th number going from smallest to largest. Equivalently, it is the third number going from largest to smallest - which is 18.
