Hi
I have posted this question for a while. Can someone tell me how the raw score is transformed to the standard score. For example, you have the standard score of Anatomy of 93, does that mean you might get 93 questions right out of the 100 questions in the test? Thanks advance.

I called all colleges for their requirments. A lot of univ take residents or citizens. Few univ take foreign students depending on the space available so the list gets cut short to a small number. I being on student visa is having tough time.
