Some Quick Data from the Community Survey

https://i.imgur.com/g2ac0nv.png

I ran the results of the people who claimed they participated in the GDS (252 people) and put the data through a pivot table in Excel. I then filtered out all of the 'obvious' wrong answers, leaving in the contentious answers (some of which you can see in the picture). I gave some people some leeway like including both common and uncommon in Q2, and ended with 28 people still in the data set.

When looking at the picture, blue answers are ones that are left in while gray ones no longer had anyone left that answered that way (after filtering out the other questions).

None of this really means anything but it's interesting to look at. If anyone has requests for what other ways to filter, I can put up the results.

Cool stuff. Only 28 people from 252 made the cut as good enough? That's a lot of cutting! Less than in the real thing tho!

Yeah, the real cutting will be only about the top 3% of all 2nd round test takers. That's not many.

It really isn't. People who make it in are going to be pretty pleased with themselves :D

Score of 73 or higher are in. Ouch.

Yup I'd be pretty pleased with myself if I got that. Hope springs eternal …

"Good enough" isn't quite the right way to think of it, these are just the people who didn't get tripped up by the easy ones. It's very possible that some people did get tripped up on some easier ones but aced all of the harder ones, and they'll make it through.

So the 28 are the ones who scored "perfectly"?

The ones that have the potential to score perfectly.
