[@Simplelearningpro]

Haha I'm glad to hear!

[@vladbsr8739]

That means you're in the 90% percentile. Congrats! 🤣

[@prithvib8662]

Best explanation of this on TH-cam. Quick and straight to the point.

I have just begun my Black Belt in Lean Sigma - Videos like this are invaluable, thank you all so much.

[@preciousamaechi689]

I remember taking the GRE, these part of statistics can be really stochastic, but you've made it quite clear. Thank you.

[@sadafsblog2319]

[@aboudasf4148]

What if the number of students was even? How do you get the 25th, 50th and 75th percentile?

[@kamrezgaming6916]

Make some more explain statistics topic!!!! Please

[@aname3564]

Me: You kinda sound like the guy in the "Daily Dose of Internet" channel

[@sunshine9810]

Both 35marks have 50 percentile?

[@srijanuniyal2766]

👍

[@ycombinator765]

sorpredente! amico mio.... :)

[@measureoftruth5909]

Surely it is: "If somebody scored AT the 75th percentile then you could say they beat 75% of the class. If they scored IN the 75th percentile, then their score was the same or greater than 75% of the class." Please clarify - I am going off of the Wikipedia definition where it makes the distinction.

[@Simplelearningpro]

Hey thanks for the comment. This is something I would double check with your professor. Most textbooks classify "in" and "at" to be synonymous, and make no distinction between them when referring to percentiles. In this video I've made their use to be synonymous

[@measureoftruth5909]

Thank you for such a quick reply! @@Simplelearningpro

[@measureoftruth5909]

One final question - in your example if a student scores at the 75th percentile does that mean we can say he/she either beat or tied 75% of the class? (as opposed to just "beat"). Because if the values below their score could be the same then a few could theoretically be ties.

[@Simplelearningpro]

That is correct. "Beat or tied" is like saying "as small or smaller".

[@halakazzaz1814]

I don’t think my brain will ever understand this

[@akosibrothercoolpzzle123]

Huh? That's the easiest explanation sir.

[@Larimuss]

So it literally just means equal to or smaller than. Why can't people explain it like this 😮

[@thatomofolo452]

Gotcha 😎

[@thatomofolo452]

Greater then but not equal to

[@thatomofolo452]

😮
