I think with enough samples, we could determine a rough "probably-pass" score on practice tests. At the very least it would help people's confidence walking in.
One more thing on the to-do list.
That would be AWESOME!!!!! :coolgleam:

Indeed, that would be cool!
I wonder if some google docs or something couldn't be made so that one individual person wouldn't have to collect all the scores and keep up after 'em. People could just go and fill out a form, and bingo, it would be updated. Reports could be released annually or something.

Even better!!

I think Google docs would really work. Let's start.
https://docs.google.com/demo/edit?id=scA...t#document
Let me know if the link works or not. I'm not sure if we all have to open gmail accounts or something.

It works! (And I was able to add to it
) Though I wonder, could we set up a spreadsheet of some kind so we can get an average or something? And how would we categorize everything?

The link works.
If a bunch of people wanted to get on board. An idea maybe to create a questionnaire with perhaps a drop down box of what test was taken, the various PT scores (with maybe a subsection for what PT, e.g. Petersons, REA, FCP, Official, etc.), the actual score, and maybe the date it was taken (to track if the trends change w/ time).
With this, the tests would be able to be categorized and a formula should be able to be set up fairly easily to average the scores and the ratio of the PT scores to the actual score.

Good! Yes, a questionnaire would be best, but I think you'd need some CSS for that. (And I forgot all of mine.)
And don't think I didn't see that % sign, lol.

Oh, I'm so sorry! It's still working here on my end. We need a fool-proof way to do this.
