Raw Scores

Wouldn't that make it 79%, not 71%?

I emailed KCC and was told I should have them within a month.

Ha @ Fatbananas, that's what I made it, clearly i've got the wrong end of the stick! Good job it's not be vying for a Grammar School place!

I am sure that someone will come along who is much better than explaining the system than me but this is how I understand it. Here goes ...

In order to get full marks on a paper e.g. 138 in English, you dont have to score 100% i.e. get all the questions right. In the past it has been approximately 75% of correct answers gives you full marks on the paper and poss 50% is a pass. Your RAW score is the percentage your DC got on the paper, it then gets standardised according to age to give you your paper mark e.g. 109.

What I dont understand is how 71% (what would have been considered a high score) could equal 109. But I have heard (from a reliable source) that to pass the Maths this year you only needed to 11 questions right out of the 30 which makes the pass 37%. It seems to imply that you needed to have scored very highly in the English to get a pass. So it all seems at bit topsy turvy.

Once people get their RAW score from KCC - it may well all become clear.

Hope this makes sense and please if I have got this wrong forgive me and someone will, I'm sure, correct it. Thanks

ah of course, as there wasn't 141 questions was there?

I wonder where this scores come from and why it can't just be a straightforward mark out of 30 or whatever!

How does all this become relevent anyway?
