Thank you for the clarification. <br /><br />Though (as you mentioned) this plot is not particularly applicable - it was a disturbing chart to read. In fact, it made me question the validity of life, the universe, and everything. Something like that anyway . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2282294016826326878.post-72440891312139707262010-09-29T18:35:46.390-05:002010-09-29T18:35:46.390-05:00Oops ... the x-axis labels on that bottom right pl...Oops ... the x-axis labels on that bottom right plot are wrong. That is 4 people with grades between 99-100, and 12 with 90-99. I didn't end up adopting the best 4/5 scaling in the end, since it didn't really help a substantial percentage of the class.<br /><br />The scaling I adopted is <a href="http://ph253-255.blogspot.com/2010/09/ph253-exam-1-scaling.html#more" rel="nofollow">here</a> in which 14 people were between 90-100%. Everyone gained with this scaling.pleclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07263994015241270268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2282294016826326878.post-30686406890333213362010-09-29T18:23:07.585-05:002010-09-29T18:23:07.585-05:00How did this go from 12 people with a raw score 90...How did this go from 12 people with a raw score 90+ to 4 people with a scaled score of 90+ I'm not certain I follow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
