Confirmation that the lower scorer falsified the resume
A complete substitute for interviews and work samples
Proof that the higher scorer will perform better in every part of the job
3. How does a percentile rank differ from a percentage-correct score?
A percentile counts unanswered questions, while percentage correct counts only attempted questions
