General Factor
Add or subtract the same score for all students
1. Adding/subtracting points
2. 100% refers to the maximum score defined in the original set of grades. Check, in order to enable a higher final score, or, in the event of a reduction in order to allow for a score reduction for the candidate who received 100%
3. Check in order to round up a final score for an integer (the rounding will be according to the rounding rules used by the institution)
Please note: No score is less than 0
1. Please note: enter a number greater than 100% for a positive factor and less than 100% for a negative one
2. Checking the box will allow, if a negative factor is chosen, to reduce the score even for students who originally received 100% of the score
Multiplication by % and Adding points Factor
Using the formula, for example: 75*0.85+17=80.75
Average and Standard Deviation Factor
Determining the desired average and standard deviation, the system will calculate the grades again according to the highlighted formula:
Please note: this factor may reduce high scores
Square root then multiplication by 10 Factor
Left-skewed distribution
The formula for calculation: √X*10
X = Grade before Factor
