A note on the calculation of the standardised score

The standardised score is calculated in the following manner:

  • The average (mean) score for each paper is re-based to a standardised score of 100.
  • The standard deviation of the results is re-based to a value of 15
  • A candidate's standardised score is calculated by determining how many standard deviations their score is from the mean score, multiplying the answer by 15 (the re-based value of 1 standard deviation) and either adding or subtracting the calculated value from 100 (the standardised mean score) depending on whether they scored above or below the mean
  • Example: mean score=30, one standard deviation=4.5, candidate score=33.
    Candidate's standardised score= 100 + ((33-30)/4.5)*15) = 100 + 10 = 110
