OK, so there are certain things one shouldn't do at 2AM. I will now list 'math' as one of them. Since a score on each area is independent of the other then really we are picking from the same bucket of people. So the worst case scenario is that the exact same 25% scored in the top quartile on each evaluation. That would make the worst rank 436ish. Why does this matter? If my app scored in the top 25% in all categories what area should i try to improve?
Maybe I should be looking to find one of those "judges that might be interested" in our apps. hmm... On May 18, 12:45 am, Cybocat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Statistics were not my favorite class.
