A student in the 50th percentile on a standardized reading assessment scored:

Above the average range
Below the average range
In the average range
None of the above

The correct answer is: In the average range

A student in the 50th percentile on a standardized reading assessment scored within the average range. This means that the student scored higher than 50% of the other students who took the assessment, but lower than the other 50%. The other options are incorrect because - Option A implies the student scored higher than the average range, which is not possible for a student in the 50th percentile - Option B implies the student scored lower than the average range, which is also not possible for a student in the 50th percentile - Option D states none of the above, but the correct answer is within the average range, so this option is also incorrect.
