Statistics - Class Statistics tab

You can use the Class Statistics tab to scale student results by result group and class group.

Note:
Result group was used before calculations and formulas were developed in Synergetic. Some organisations still use this method using a user-calculation stored procedure.


Tip:
Consider using the Formula tab instead. See Subject Assessment Maintenance - Area tab - Formula sub-tab.
