Question 9 of 150
The outcome from an analytics initiative has resulted in key stakeholders wanting to move forward with a project to redesign the company’s website. The business analyst has called a meeting to work on drafting a plan to assess the level of effort required to complete this work.

In this scenario, inviting participants who have prior experience with similar projects to provide estimates aligns with using a Rough order of magnitude estimate.

The results for a certification exam were revealed in percentage and percentile. The results for one of the attendees was: 75%, 90th percentile.
What is the value in sharing the percentile score?
Answer

Suggested Answer

The suggested answer is C.

The percentile score provides additional insight by indicating how the attendee performed in comparison to other attendees. Unlike the raw percentage, which only shows the individual's performance in terms of correct answers, the percentile shows the relative position among all test-takers, thereby giving a clearer picture of one's standing.
