Just something to ponder on....

lol, nice...makes 2unit scaling look horrible in comparison

lol, yeh. But truth be told, 2u scaling is bad.

EDIT: i read graph wrong
MX2 '08 wins! rawr haha

put MX1 in there somewhere?

 

[lyounamu]

LOL

4 UNIT is like weeee!!!! and 2 unit is like whick, whick and whick!

Sorry for my poor sound manipulation.

lol ppl think this is good, but what if someone did RAW marks vs aligned marks (not that we have the info, but IF we did)

then do a final RAW marks vs Scaled marks - it would be such an inflation, compared to 2U!! lol

HEHE you should do that graph for us

@OP- Holy moley that's one sexy graph. I love it ^^

lol, thats very true, it'll be like that graph except swap 2unit and 4unit with raw marks on the x axis and aligned on the y

 

[the-derivative]

WOW - look at all the colours on the graph!

More importantly - wow at the scaling of MX2!

2U looks so bad ... wonder what General maths would be like ><"

 

[dp624]

ok, so i whipped up an excel scatter graph:
includes P100, P99, etc and scaled mean

has general, 2u 3u and 4u

 

[georgefren]

it looks cool except ... i do 2 unit maths! aaargh!

 

[Silver Persian]

Hmm...so 90 in 2U Maths is equal to a 74 in 4U maths aye. I wonder what raw mark you would need to get 74+ in 4U...

 

[cxlxoxk]

Cool, except there's no General Maths...

 

[dp624]

Cool, except there's no General Maths...

there is in my graph thing so yea. scroll down and read pl0x?

 

[cxlxoxk]

i meant the first one...but thanks for letting me know ur one had general...

 

[M@ster P]

im only guessing but probably 50/120

 

[missgraceful]

OMFG @ 2U SCALING!
this is bad.

 

[fishbulb]

mods, sticky maybe??

 

[Trebla]

That graph can be misleading. It seems to imply a correlation between aligned marks and scaled marks when the process to achieve either of them from original raw marks are completely different from each other.

Don't be too alarmed about the perceived "lower" 2 unit scaling. A 90 in 2 unit is not the same as a 90 in Ext2.

Notice that at the top end, they appear to "converge" to 100. This implies an aligned mark of 100 in Ext2 has equal scaled mark value as an aligned mark of 100 in 2 unit .

 

[study-freak]

but doesn't 100 mean 100 in every single assessment task and exam? it's extremely difficult not to make any mistakes in any tests.
