<p>I'm taking it tomorrow and I've been prepping for
it for a long time, but I'm kinda getting paranoid...</p>
<p>for those of you who have taken it,
any last minute tips for me would be greatly appreciated!</p>
<p>thank you!</p>
<p>68-95-99.7</p>
<p>or something statistical rule. Helped was one of the miscellaneous questions</p>
<p>I'm sorry, I don't quite get what you mean
could you please elaborate?</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>let's say the average of a set of numbers of 35 and the standard deviation was 2</p>
<p>mean=35
SD=2</p>
<p>+/- 1 SD = (35-2) to (35+2) = 33-37 = 68% of the data generally fall between this range
+/- 2 SD = (35-2<em>2) to (35+2</em>2) = 31-39 = 95% of the data generally fall between this range
+/- 3 SD = (35-2<em>3) to (35+2</em>3) = 29-41 = 99.7% of the data generally fall between this range</p>
<p>lol, that's how you learn statistics?</p>
<p>ahh i see
so how would the question look like?
I'm kinda having hard time picturing how to apply that stat rule</p>
<p>I heard SAT math IIC is required for UCs. Is that true? Because im taking US History and Biology E/M tomorrow, and i dont think im prepared to switch to IIC.</p>
<p>ok..</p>
<p>from the previous example of N(35,2). by the way this is only for standard normal curves. If it asks what is the 84th percentile, you would know that that is 1 standard deviation right from the middle. This means that the 84th percentile would be 35 + 2 = 37.</p>
<p>anymore?...</p>
<p>does somebody know the answer to mofom4n?? If that's true, that's so unfair for people that are weak at math (like me!)</p>
<p>^ wow.... get real seriously.</p>
<p>well if you take the math you HAVE to take the mathIIC.</p>
<p>EVALUATION CRITERIA:
...
4. Performance on standardized tests, including two required SAT Subject Tests in different subject areas selected from history, literature, mathematics (Math Level 2 only), science or a language other than English and the SAT Reasoning Test (or ACT Assessment plus Writing Test). In addition, any Advanced Placement or IBHL examinations the applicant may have taken will be considered. Applicants who have not had the opportunity to take Advanced Placement or IBHL courses or who have chosen not to take the examinations for these courses are not disadvantaged. Test scores are evaluated in the context of all other academic information in the application and preference is given to tests that show a demonstrable relationship to curriculum. Documented imprecision and other known weaknesses of standardized tests will be taken into account. Under no circumstances does Berkeley employ minimum scores or “cut-offs” of any kind.

<p>any other tips? please!</p>
