首先,F(xiàn)RM考試的通過與否取決于2009年全球考生整體答題正確率有多高。GARP會(huì)取全球最高分的一部分考生(比如5%)的平均成績,再乘以一定比率(比如75%)得出一個(gè)通過分?jǐn)?shù)線,以此來衡量其他考生是否通過考試。
GARP says they take the top 5th quantile (i.e., whatever score cutoffs the top 5th “percentile”), then they take a ratio (e.g., 0.75) of that top score. I personally suspect the ratio (0.X of top 5%) is calibrated after the results are tabulated to approximate a ~50% pass result; or, best case, they use .75 of top 5% (e.g., if 0.75* top 5% only passes a small % due to high difficulty, I doubt they would keep it).
But, either way, it’s really based on an (ex post) “grading on a curve” (no segmentation by section/topic, all questions weigh equally)...therefore: I do not think you can divine anything useful from the method. Unfortunately, it’s a waiting game.
FRM成績單的形式是對考生每個(gè)科目的答題情況進(jìn)行評分,將每個(gè)科目的全體考生分?jǐn)?shù)劃分為5檔(Quartile)。
