I just added the Low, High and Median scores - the bold one is the average

What does low, high and median scores mean?

The low score is the lowest score for each team and the center. The high score is the high score for each team and the center. The median score is the score such that 50% of the results are above and 50% are below. Did you not take algebra?

As a matter of fact, Mr. know-it-all, I did. In 9th grade. And halfway through the quarter they took several students aside and said "Hey, guess what, we're creating an Algebra class for just you!" And lo and behold, Anonymous Middle School said "Let there be Basic Algebra" and there was and it was still frightening but not as horrifying as Algebra.

It was not a class for dumb kids...it was a class for those of us that couldn't figure out that X x 3 = Y. When will I ever use this crap anyway?

He's a dink. Yep, a dink. I enjoy math, I do, but this was stupid. You don't need to know the medians that much as a team lead. Give me a break.This was just an exercise of his to try and show that he knows big words. Could you imagine telling a banker, "You're the lower median for our center." The banker would have the same response you did. "Huh?"The better phrasing would be, "75% of the people here are better than you. Pick it up."Or the really blunt way of putting it, "You suck."But then, we need to be positive. Try, "You could be better. I believe that."

DanaFirst of all, Mr Cream Puff Man is on crack. I went through all of Algebra and still am trying to figure out when I will be using that same equation that did bespake about (yes I know I typed the word "bespake" it is just fun that way). I make fun of the "short bus" that he referred to, but let me tell you something, at my work when I park in a certain ramp on certain days, I too have to ride a short bus, but yet I know more than him. He is an ass.To comment on some of Beth's remarks, another way to tell a banker that they are the lower median of the phone bank, was the way that Mike and you used to tell me when that would happen to me, which was Mike would say: "Other than the glaring obvious is there something else wrong with you that I should know about?" An you, Dana, my mother, would look at me and say, "Matt, you can do better". So no where in the math classes do they teach you that.Once again I reiterate, Cream Puff Man is an assinine butt.Matt
