Is my understanding correct that these number ranges are post-adjustment by examiners? I.e. one who scores 5 topics >70% does not necessarily mean he literally scored more than 4/7 for the 5 topics, but rather due to bell curve moderation?
I feel like its:
AM: 0/3/7
PM: 0/7/3
ie: no clue.
AM: 3 / 4 / 3 PM: 1 / 5 / 4
AM: 3/3/4
PM:2/3/5
Pass

Hmm…anyone knows the answer to the question below…?

The OPs question is straight forward. Essentially asking when you look at your results matrices, where will the asterisks fall?
Yes I guess I asked in the wrong thread… 
from my experience doing 1000s of PM type questions between level 2/3… even on item sets that I had seen 2-3 times I rarely got 6/6 or less than 3/3… from what I remember I likely averaged 4/6… while ethics was very tricky IMO
Good point… I can say with 95 per cent confidence that all my scores were between 3 and 6 on the afternoon and my mocks support that. Of course, I only did four pm mocks…
AM PM 55% 82% 180 180 99 147 PASS 68%
how to do come up with these estimates after so many days post exam? is solution posted yet?
2016 : Band 8 Fail (Could only prepare for around 10 days with no mocks)
AM :143/17/20
PM : 0/2/8
2017 : 3 months and Over 250 hrs + 4 mocks (2 timed and 2 not timed)
AM : 60+/-5
PM: 0/3/7
Should score around 67-73.
In terms of relative difficulty think this year PM was a bit difficult than 2016 and AM was marginally easier than 2016
Are you saying you studied only 10 days and got band 8?
My feeling - FAIL BAND 9.
Your 2016 performance is really impressive… only 10 days of preparation…
+1
This is what we have so far…HURRY if you need to take a pick… DRAW IS NEXT TUESDAY…

FlashForward AM - slightly worse than 1/2/7(My L1 and L2 score) PM - better than 1/2/7.
mburger AM: 1/4/5 PM: 1/3/6
Flashback AM Expect 2-3 of <=50, 2 of >70, and rest in the mid interval. PM Expect 1 of <=50, 3 of >70, rest in the mid interval.
