Priority Calculation and Interpretation

conrad.p · August 2017

I have a hunch that the priority value, be it 0.6, 1.2, etc., is a numerical representation that reflects the expected number of problems of whatever type that you would miss on an upcoming exam. Is this correct?

For example, if it is expected that 8 weakening questions would appear on any given exam, and that my success rate in the past with this type of question is 75%, then the priority level would be calculated as 2. Meaning that my failure rate (25%, or 0.25) is multiplied by the number of expected questions (8) to calculate a priority of 2 (0.25*8).

Howdy, Stranger!
