What is Cialfo Likelihood?
It is a data projection representing the likelihood of a student achieving a possible acceptance to a college or university. The projected likelihood is as explained:
Not Enough Data
This is shown when there is insufficient data to make an accurate assessment. As more test scores and subject grades are entered in the student profile, this increases the probability for Cialfo to predict chances of admissions.
Far Reach
There is an estimated 1% to 5% chance of admission to the university for the student.
Reach
There is an estimated 5% to 20% chance of admission to the university for the student.
Target
There is an estimated 20% to 75% chance of admission to the university for the student.
Likely
There is an estimated 75% to 99% chance of admission to the university for the student.
How is Cialfo Likelihood calculated?
