  3. Percentile - just assume a class has 100 students and their marks are sorted in ascending order, maximum mark is considered as 100th percentile, 5th minimum mark is considered as 5th percentile, 10th minimum mark is considered as 10th percentile and so on…
    Reliability- if you are conducting a test and you are getting a result, same test is conducted again, now the chance of getting the same result is considered as reliability of the test. If reliability is above 0.9 then excellent reliability. Reliability ranges from 0 to 1.
