September Class Stats!

Now that the month is well over and all the points have been posted, it's time to take a look at September's class stats! First off, a look at which classes were more popular with Ravenclaws:

Our blitz class for September, which was the Horcrux seminar, actually managed to take second place to Charms. Sometimes it all comes down to solid studying in core classes. 

Next, I went to my favorite comparison right now: by dorm! Here's the breakdown for average number of turn-ins across all classes by dorm (which does include partials):

The Fourths are holding steady in the lead, but those enthusiastic Firsties are surely on their tails! My own dorm, the low-Ms, seems to be seriously lagging for September. We should step it up!

 Of course it doesn't always come down to number of turn-ins if you have classes with bonus points! Here's the comparison of average points per turn-in by dorm:

Those Fourths and Sevenths are definitely pulling their weight; high in both number of turn-ins and average points! And we low-Ms may be a bit behind on number of turn-ins but we are right in the middle for points; clearly the upper years have all figured out a good middle ground for bonus points!

We're nearly halfway through October now, so I hope everyone is well on their way for this month's classes!

Thursday Stats: June Pie!

Happy Thursday! The June scores are in and that means it's time for pie. Delicious, number based pie.

Once again, Ravenclaw soared when it came to classes and detention. It's always good to see a nice big blue slice.


It's not just about the pie, though. We also have some Advanced Studies bars. We had the most OWL 50% turn-ins and the highest number of June Advanced Studies points overall. It's good momentum as all three kinds of Advanced Studies come to a close this month.


Just two and a half weeks to go!

Flight of the First - May 2015

This term marks the return of The Flight of the First, which in the past was a challenge to turn in a Detention project by the end of the first week of each month.  This term things are being changed up a bit, and the challenge is to turn in at least one class by the end of the first week.

All of those who rose to the challenge for the month of May were earburned to the Class Tetris thread to collect a fabulous badge created by Saratheentwife.

Now, for some statistics from this month's Flight!

82 Ravenclaw students turned in at least one class during the first week of May.  This is 46.8% of the 175 Sorted 'Claws this term!


All of these students got the minimum for Sorting Priority taken care of, and now have the rest of the month to focus on things like Advanced Studies and Quidditch.  The majority turned in just one class during the first (very exciting) week of term, but there were 9 who turned in 3 or more classes!  WOW!

The total number of projects turned in by these 82 students was 115!  Here is a chart showing the distribution among the eight possible subjects, with the numbers and percentage of the total included.

Will you join the numbers next month?  Remember, to fulfill the requirements for the challenge, all you need to do is complete at least one regular class during the first 7 days of the month.  No special tags or forms or anything else special needed on your part.


Also, don't forget that we also have the Detention badge for May available.  Turn in Detention by the end of the day (11:59POT) on May 26th to earn the badge in honor of Sally Ride!
