- If your score on your next statistics test is converted to a z score, which of these z scores would you prefer: - 2.00, - 1.00, 0, 1.00, 2.00? Why? OA The z score of 1.00 is most preferable because it is 1.00 standard deviation above the mean and would correspond to an above average test score. O B. The z score of 0 is most preferable because it corresponds to a test score equal to the mean. OC. The z score of - 1.00 is most preferable because it is 1.00 standard deviation below the mean and would correspond to an above average test score. OD. The z score of 2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations above the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores. O E. The z score of -2.00 is most preferable because it is 2.00 standard deviations below the mean and would correspond to the highest of the five different possible test scores.
