先講非選擇題的評分標準，必看：

From both Carmody and someone in my organization who has served
as a grader, I understood that each question has a certain number
of "grading outline points". One need not get all the grading
points to get a 10 on that question. For example, for a particular
question there might be 50 grading points, but the number of
points for a 10 on that specific question might be 35.

Carmody stresses this point in his seminar -- you don't need to
write everything on the grading outline to get a 10 on the
question -- often the "main bullet points" might comprise 30-40%
of the total grading points on a particular question.

The important thing is to get on paper (at a pace of 3 minutes
per question point) these "main points", include some detail,
and move on.

If you leave a question completely blank on a written exam, it's
so deadly, because you can get a fair amount of the points needed
to get a 10 on a question by writing just the key things.

Since this is a timed exam, there clearly is "decreasing marginal
utility" to writing polished and detailed answers for any
particular question.

I think this also explains why people tend to get either
individual question scores of 1, 2, or 10.

所以答非選擇題時千萬要注意這篇文章中講的重點。

The method the SOA uses to set the pass mark is a secret that is as
closely guarded as the formula for Coca Cola.

I always understood that the grade that you receive on the exam
only indicates where you finished relative to the pass mark.


0 = less than 50% of the pass mark
1 = 50-59% of the pass mark
2 = 60-69% of the pass mark
3 = 70-79% of the pass mark
4 = 80-89% of the pass mark
5 = 90-99% of the pass mark
6 = 100-109% of the pass mark
7 = 110-119% of the pass mark
8 = 120-129% of the pass mark
9 = 130-139% of the pass mark
10 = at least 140% of the pass mark

大家知道成績單上的6分是怎麼來的了吧？至於幾分的原始分數會被訂成6分，
則是由委員會的成員們決定。
