For the same type of test and dates, CBR counted 37,347 first tests nationwide. The pass rate was 74.7%. The school’s rate is 1.6 percentage points below the national rate.

Comparing the same test centres

At the same 2 test centres, other schools have a combined pass rate of 68.7%. A centre counts more if this school had more tests there. The school’s own rate is 73.1%: 4.4 percentage points above this rate. This uses 175 of its 175 first tests and 991 tests from other schools. We leave out the school’s own CBR code and known related codes when calculating the other schools’ rate. We compare the same type of test over the same dates. A difference does not prove better or worse teaching.
