Some days I think they will be ok. Others I feel they have totally flopped the one. They have provided no real feedback to go by. I feel they will miss out by a few marks only. Maybe about 215 end score

Bob did a prediction for me on a PM using his formula. I'll let you know if he was right or not :?

We need good enough for FW.

DD has not been at all forthcoming, so I am at a total loss as to how she has done.

If she doesn't get FW, we still need about 210 for Alcester :?

I must be going mad - I started thinking of GCSE's. What do they give you on the 11+ if you have completely messed the paper up and not answered anything??

Do you get like 100 or a X or null result or something??

BTW following the goal discussion earlier, is that pronounced All Stir or ALL ces ter.

I hear brummies argue over how to pronounce Soli -hull vs people who would aspire to live their who say its SO -li- Hull

I don't trust people who say SO - li - HULL.

But I digress - Nervous fingers crossed, I really hope DC gets a result

I had a go using the normal distribution calculator http://onlinestatbook.com/2/calculators ... _dist.html again, plugging in the new mean of 200, a standard deviation of 37 (as I used for the Walsall consortium) and trying to get the same probability results as I did with the 358 score for Walsall. And I got 258. Might want to knock a few off for a completely slack summer. So I'm going for 245. *not really got a clue face*

Here you go :


S = 15(0 - 55)/12.5 + 100

You will get an SD score of around 68 if your raw was 0% :D

I am hoping Bob will come back and man up :D

I will tell you our tutor has predicted 253 for KE.

She predicted 373 for Walsall and he achieved slightly higher. My Walsall prediction was 368.

And I am going slightly higher than our tutor on KE. But again predicting is quite tough as there could be a lot of unknowns.

I shall let you know if we come anywhere close to these predictions next week. Always better to be positive :D

Too many variables involved to predict so I'm keeping out of this one!
How did you get a sd of 37 turtle girl? I thought for cem they tend to use between 10-15?
