Anyone else notice this on the official acer umat site?
All questions have the same value
We know each section score is expressed on a scale of 0 to 100, even stated so by ACER. If all questions have the same value let's challenge ACER or anyone to explain this:
S1 has 48 Qs thus each is worth *at least* 2.0833 marks (could be more if the top S1 person scores say 45 Qs and is given 100).
Using 2.0833, 24Qs= 50, 25Qs= 52 and so on 54, 56, 58, 60, 63 (rounding up from 62.5)
But we have seen posted in the same year S1 scores of 53, 54, 55, 57, 58... How did ACER manage to do that?
(Note it doesn't matter how many decimal places calculated to then rounded, it's IMPOSSIBLE to make multiples of 2.something to increment by 1).
One possible explanation is all questions have the same value
initially, after running them through ACER's algorithms & manipulations they change. But ultimately to us that means the questions have different values.
