@AZ how do i find the 1%

snowflake0531:

i don't think so

AZ:

Well back in 2010, a 33 would have been 99th percentile

snowflake0531:

o-o nice

AZ:

now it's a 98th percentile kids getting too smart

snowflake0531:

great to know but i think it refers back to the first problem xd

snowflake0531:

so then i don't think so since 3rd SD is 36.6 which is 2.35%

AZ:

yeah but the problem with that is... the ACT is scored from 1-36 hmm

snowflake0531:

oh o-o right, forgot about that

AZ:

so I'm thinking 2 SD leaves you at 31.4 and 2.5% of the people would be between 31.4 to 36 and this competitive school accepts the top 1% (and this is of student applicants not based on just test scores) so yes his score is competitive enough we shouldn't overthink it xD

snowflake0531:

okok thnx xdd

AZ:

no problem :)
