Nonsuch exams

Post by nadkha »

Hi

Does Nonsuch place greater emphasis on English?

What do you think the format will be?

Same here. My DD didn't get to the last two maths questions.

I have a slightly geeky statistical question about the weighting of the scores. DH won't indulge my conjecture and analysis - can anyone else help?

For the standardised scores of the girls' grammar tests, will the portion allocated to the scores from the SET be standardised to the whole cohort which took the SET or recalculated and standardised against the cohort which passed and then took the second exam? If it's the latter, doesn't that then mean that statistically 50% of the girls would have 'failed' even before they sat the second test, since they have to pass each element?

Maybe I should stop pondering imponderables and go drink some wine :D
