B. Median Score
50% of the candidates who attempted this test scored less than or equal to this score.
Indicates the median value from different candidates’ test scores. This value serves as a benchmark score to identify candidates who qualify and those who don’t.
C. Median Attempt Time (Minutes)
50% of the candidates who attempted this test took less than or equal to this time.
Indicates the median value from different candidates’ test completion times. This median value serves as a benchmark correlation to separate the faster and slower test takers.
Example: If the value is 10m 45s, it implies that 50% of your candidates completed this Test in less than or equal to the median time.
D. Median Time to Full Score (Minutes)
50% of the candidates who scored 100% on this test took less than or equal to this amount of time.
Indicates the median value from different test completion times considering only those Tests in which candidates have achieved a full score. This median value serves as a benchmark correlation to separate test takers who achieved a full score in the shortest possible time.
