Note(s): Four data points are available from the exercise: first-shot reaction time, inter-shot interval, accuracy and reload time. Means and standard deviations represent performance from two groups, Squad A and Squad B. These performances are compared against another simulated average sample to convert performance in percentile scores. Raw performance is the same as with Example #1 for first-shot RT, inter-shot interval and accuracy. Across all four exercises, both squads have the same average percentile score of 50th percentile
