Hello, so these scores are good enough for those who need 303? How much will we need for super selectives, and also bear in mind another element of age standardisation..winter borns will get how many marks less? Any thoughts??
So there are a few variables that will be at play here but let’s try this out using 2014 – 2017 data.
Average English mean score (2014 – 2017) – 55%
Average English standard deviation (2014 – 2017) – 8.7
Average Maths mean score (2014 – 2017) – 58%
Average Maths standard deviation (2014 – 2017) – 11.7
So, using the above:
To achieve a combined Standardised Score of 304, a possible scenario could be:
English Raw Score - 42/60
Maths Raw Score – 25/60
To achieve a combined Standardised Score of 345, a possible scenario could be:
English Raw Score - 42/60 (keeping the English score same as above for comparison sake)
Maths Raw Score – 46.5/60
OR
To achieve a combined Standardised Score of 304, a possible scenario could be:
English Raw Score - 42/60
Maths Raw Score – 25/60
To achieve a combined Standardised Score of 345, a possible scenario could be:
English Raw Score – 58/60
Maths Raw Score – 25/60 (keeping the Maths score same as above for comparison sake)
I did hear about age becoming a factor of score standardisation. The above scenarios don’t take into account this additional variable.
