Apparently the mean score is 100, and the standard deviation is 15.

This means that 67% of the population will score between 85 and 115.

Higher scores are better.

The company selling the midyis system will give, as well as scores, predictions of what the child should be able to achieve at GCSE level. Schools can then use this to a) track a child's progress compared with their theoretical capability predicted by the test, and b) to see if they have "added value" by raising the child to achieve more (or less) than predicted.

it's not a very good score.....


What does a midyis score of 120 represent?

The Midyis score is standardized, so 100 is average. Somewhere around 116 would be one standard deviation about average, so that suggests 120 is just above the cusp to be "above average". However, that is just observed score and there is a huge margin of error in such assessments as trying to measuring attainment in the brain is complex. So in reality, what the child actually knows will be somewhere between 108-132 midyis score. From the midyis score alone, it does seem reasonable to ensure that student is prepared to go through university.

What does a MidYIS score of 154 represent?

Hi! An average MidYIS score is 100 so 154 is an extremely good standard. If your child keeps up the effort in achieving their obviously high potential they should be well on their way to A/A* s in GCSE and A-Level. It's highly likely that your child will be accepted into Oxford University if their obvious talent is nurtured and nourished throughout their school years. They are likely to be in the top 1% of the population so maybe MENSA would be an option?


What does it mean if the Z score of a test is equal to 0?

If the Z Score of a test is equal to zero then the raw score of the test is equal to the mean. Z Score = (Raw Score - Mean Score) / Standard Deviation


Is a negative z score always an indicator that the raw score is below the mean?

Yes.z = (raw score - mean)/standard error.Since the standard error is positive, z < 0 => (raw score - mean) < 0 => raw score < mean.

What does midyis skills measure?

It aims to provide insights into a student's potential academic performance and identify areas where they may need additional support or challenge.


Is it true any score with value less than the population mean will have a negative z-score?

Yes. If a score is below the mean, the z score will be negative.


What does a negative z-score mean?

z-score of a value=(that value minus the mean)/(standard deviation). So if a value has a negative z-score, then it is below the mean.


Calculate the z-score for a test score of 87 if the mean test score is 81.1 and standrd deviation is 11.06?

z score = (test score - mean score)/SD z score = (87-81.1)/11.06z score = 5.9/11.06z score = .533You can use a z-score chart to calculate the probability from there.
