[Histonet] QIHC

[Lee & Peggy Wenk]

I thought I would look up the stats for the QIHC on the ASCP webpage
http://www.ascp.org/PDF/ExamStat.aspx

In 2010, 88 people took the exam, with 80 passing, or 91%.

I then looked over all the stats from 2005-2010 (in 2005, the exam became a 
50 multiple choice question exam. Previous, it had been a practical exam.)
442 people took the exam during this time, with 366 passing, or 82.8%.

The pass rates during those years were: 85%, 70%, 81%, 83%, 82%, 91%.

A score of 400 is required to pass.
The lowest score possible is 100. The lowest scores during those years were: 
220, 240, 260, 260, 300, 270.
The highest score possible is 999. The highest scores during those years 
were: 640, 640, 680, 820, 680, 680.
