Assessment upgrades

1. Enabled scaled score logic for new assessment type PSAT 8/9

As a dedicated PSAT tutor, you understand the significance of the scaled scoring system in PSAT assessments. With the shift to digital PSAT tests, it becomes crucial for learners to familiarise themselves with the scaled scoring methodology to assess their performance. Recognizing this need, EdisonOS has revolutionised its assessment platform by incorporating the scaled scoring algorithm specifically designed for PSAT 8/9 assessments where, we have implemented the scaled scoring logic, simulating the PSAT 8/9 test environment. This innovative algorithm takes into account multiple factors, including adaptive logic, learner's test attempt data and test difficulty, to generate scaled scores for each individual learner. By integrating the scaled scoring algorithm into EdisonOS, we empower learners to gain valuable insights into their performance.
