The term high grading in forestry , fishing and mining relates to selectively harvesting goods, to cut the best and leave the rest . In mining, it can also be a term for theft. Forestry In forestry , high grading is a selective type of selection cutting timber harvesting that removes the highest grade of Lumber timber i.e, the most merchantable stems in an area of forest. The stunted, slow growing or poorly formed trees that are left as residuals will, if ecological conditions permit, reseed the space that has been created. Over time the practise of high grading can therefore give rise to forest stands containing stems of less value in terms of timber quality. The opposite of this practice is low grading , where the lower quality trees are periodically harvested, making the genetic stock faster growing and of better timber quality. Fishing High grading is a practice of selectively harvesting fish so that only the best quality fish are brought ashore. The practice is popular in situations under IFQ individual fishing quotas where only a limited number of fish are allowed to be harvested. Following the letter, but not the spirit of the law, fish are caught, and if not considered optimal, thrown back into the ocean. The practice of high grading allows fishers to get high prices for their limited catch but is environmentally destructive because many of the fish returned to the water die. Mining In mining, high grading refers to mining out the portions of the orebody that has the highest grade of material to be mined, however it may also refer to the concealment and theft of valuable gold or silver ore by miner s for personal profit.

No footnotes date March 2010 Original research date March 2010 In education , grading on a curve also known as curved grading or simply curving is a statistical method of assigning grades designed to yield a pre determined distribution of grades among the students in a class. The term curve refers to the bell curve, the graphical representation of the probability density of the normal distribution also called the Gaussian distribution , but this method of grading does not necessarily make use of any specific frequency distribution such as the bell shaped normal distribution. One method of applying a curve uses these three steps First, numeric scores or possibly scores on a sufficiently fine grained ordinal scale are assigned to the students. The actual values are unimportant as long as the ordering of the scores corresponds to the ordering of how good the students are. In the second step these scores are converted to percentile s or some other system of quantile s . Finally, the percentile values are transformed to grades according to a division of the percentile scale into intervals, where the interval width of each grade indicates the desired relative frequency for that grade. For example, if there are three grades, A, B and C, where A is reserved for the top 10 of students, B for the next 20 , and C for the remaining 70 , then scores in the percentile interval from 0 to 70 get grade C, scores from 71 to 90 get grade B, and scores from 91 to 100 get grade A. The grading method can thus be tuned to determine the frequency distribution of the grades in advance, and if the intervals ... each grade.

refimprove date February 2008 Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors RECIST is a set of published rules that define when cancer patients improve respond , stay the same stabilize , or worsen progression during treatments. The criteria were published in February, 2000 by an international collaboration including the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer EORTC , National Cancer Institute of the United States , and the National Cancer Institute of Canada Clinical Trials Group. Today, the majority of clinical trials evaluating cancer treatments for objective response in solid tumors are using RECIST. Eligibility Only patients with measurable disease at baseline should be included in protocols where objective tumor response is the primary endpoint. Measurable disease the presence of at least one measurable lesion. If the measurable disease is restricted to a solitary lesion, its neoplastic nature should be confirmed by cytology histology. Measurable lesions lesions that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension with longest diameter 20 mm using conventional techniques or 10 mm with spiral CT scan. Non measurable lesions all other lesions, including small lesions longest diameter 20 mm with conventional techniques or 10 mm with spiral CT scan , i.e., bone lesions, leptomeningeal disease, ascites, pleural pericardial effusion, inflammatory breast disease, lymphangitis cutis pulmonis, cystic lesions, and also abdominal masses that are not confirmed and followed by imaging techniques.

grading The Tunisian grading system is mostly a 20 point grading scale it is used in secondary schools and universities. For primary schools, a new system has been introduced, based on a letter grade scale the old system uses a 10 point grading scale for the first term and a 20 point scale for the second and third terms. Currently, most Tunisian universities use a traditional 20 point grading scale, but after the introduction of the new National Higher Education Reform, a new grading scale, similar to that of the ECTS grading scale , is becoming more and more common. Most of the time, the formal grades used in Tunisia are not considered in graduate programs acceptance. A grade of 12 which is actually a passable grade in Tunisia but equivalent to 60 in the US where it is considered a below average is generally a good starting grade to apply for graduate studies and financial aids or scholarships. This is due to a severe testing and evaluation system employed in most Tunisian universities. Generally, at the national level, a grade of 12 or above is considered a good grade. This is why some European universities use a different admission requirement for Tunisian students. Tunisia s neighboring countries, Algeria & Morocco , have a very similar grading system.
