History – Free Study Score vs. Position Occurrence

I actually have two discussions left to post if anybody s still listening but decided to throw in a bonus one because there’s a Free Study in voting right now.

We discussed already what the historical occurrences of score vs. position
Link

However, we didn’t look at Free Study only data. For those that are interested this is what the historical data tells us the likely occurrences to make the top 20 are in a Free Study.

This table is a little different than the previous posts. Here I used a cumulative approach. So for example, a 7.0 score has finished in a Free Study first place 3.1% of the time but it has finished in the top ten 82.0% and in the top twenty 97.6% of the time.

That is an interesting stat. In Free Study, a score of 7.0 will land you in the ribbons less than 20% of the time! That is some intense competition!

And a score of 6.5 won't land you in the TOP20 either. Certainly puts even getting into the Top10 in a Free Study into perspective.

Actually you have a 3.9% change of making the top 20 with a 6.5 :-p
