The discussion focuses on calculating a student's curved grade based on a college test score, average, and root mean square (RMS). The average score was 63, with an RMS of 16, and the student scored 86. The professor's curving method is not explicitly defined, but it is suggested that simply adding a constant to all scores may lead to unrealistic results, such as exceeding 100%. Understanding the specific curving formula is essential for accurate grade calculation.
PREREQUISITESStudents, educators, and academic administrators interested in understanding and applying grade curving techniques effectively.
BadSkittles said:Hello, I've been trying to find online where I could calculate my grade based off a college curve. So the average grade on the test was a 63. The RMS is 16. I got a 86. So what will my grade curve to? This is out of 50 people. Also, the professor curves to a 70 (I think).
