Purpose
This workflow helps teacher exam candidates organize written, demo teaching, interview, and portfolio scores into a checkable calculation, then interpret T/Z/PR position.
Workflow steps
- Enter raw scores: keep written, demo, interview, portfolio, and other components separate.
- Apply weights: convert each official weight into a percent or decimal and check that the total is 100%.
- Convert and compare scores: calculate the weighted total, then use T, Z, or PR tools when reference data are available.
- Understand T/Z/PR: T and Z describe distance from the mean, while PR describes relative position.
- Save or copy: keep raw scores, weights, mean, SD, and calculation date for later checking.

FAQ
- Can this toolkit predict admission?
- No. It only helps with estimates and explanation. Official outcomes depend on published rules and actual score data.
- Can I calculate T score without mean and SD?
- No. T and Z scores require a mean and standard deviation from the same reference group.
- Is PR the same as exact rank?
- Not exactly. PR is a relative percentile position; exact rank depends on the full candidate list and tie rules.
- Can I estimate weights myself?
- For practice, yes. For serious interpretation, use the current official notice.
