Percentiles are fairly easy to understand but, still, many students are confused. In any context, if you are in the 90th percentile, that means your performance is better than 90% of those who participate in that event. That being said, percentiles are always changing depending on what the event is and how every participant performs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
