I have no exact number, but if I had to guess it'd be ~2500 for my ICCUP ranking. | ||

You can't just convert the 1600 to the new one lol There's still huge variables with the sat, even if you eliminate the old farts. Someone could be a math wiz, but totally incapable of writing, or vice versa. Race used would probably have to be considered as well. There is a mathematically accepted procedure to convert the old SAT scores to the appropriate proportions of the new SAT scores. Although it is not perfect, it gives people a rough estimate of what they would have gotten if they had taken the new SAT. | ||

My Null hypothesis: There is association between SAT scores and skill level of starcraft players my alternative hypothesis: There is no association between SAT scores and skill level of players And of course there are outlets to give way to bias, skewed data/information and what not but there is of course a section of the project that tells me to state any and all possible ways that my data or information had been skewed in any way. So for all the people not actually contributing to the topic and saying negative things about my project, please either say something negative then offer a solution to the said negative thing or just post your info. Thank you. | ||

Thank you. See this is where I got worried: There is association between SAT scores and skill level of starcraft players See, hyopthesizing is not random. You have to have an AIM first. You have to ask yourself the question WHY? Why am I doing this? Is there any rational reason why I want to ascertain this information. i.e., if I ascertain this piece of information X will be solved. In my view, you're looking at e-sports and the characteristics necessary to succeed in esports. I propose that, rather then SAT or IQ, the major component of e-sports success will be dedication., i.e. hours spent practicing. In fact, I've seen that already (quite briefly) in some of the results posted. I mean, it makes sense: study hard --> less bw --> lower ICCUP level (less time to practice mechanics), but higher grades less study --> more bw --> higher ICCUP score, but lower grades It's a simple level of explanation that can be extrapolated with some logic. See, I THINK , (and this is strictly my opinion) that you're trying to prove something that can be logically ascertained. What is HARD to ascertain is the balance. For example, what is the MIX of brains + dedication necessary, or something of that sort. Just saying, you don't need brains to be awesome at SC is obvious. Why? Because you can just copy progamer builds, get really good at it and ascertain a fairly high level without ever having any creativity in your play... From experience, it's the planning stage that matters the most... It's corny but, "if you fail to plan, you plan to fail". There's some truth to that and I don't think you've planned your assignemnt out at all. If it was my assignment I'd look at the characteristics required to be a succesful e-sports (or starcraft player). I would take these characteristics from general sports and add some specific to e-sports (surely there are studies out there on successful atheletes and their characteristics). Then I'd ask the appropriate question and come up with the ranking system of necessary characteristics. This would then (perhaps) allow comparison with regular sports to highlight differences/similarities: i.e. you require the same level of dedication but more brains for e-sports ... or something of that sort. Again, I don't know what level you're doing this research at, but it looks like it's just high-school/college and you're just looking to get the grades and let that be that.... | ||
