The verbal subset of the GRE has scores that are normally distributed, with a population mean of 500 and a population standard deviation of 100. Use this information to solve the following problems: 1. The percentile rank for a score of 554 2. The percentile rank for a score of 444 3. The proportion of the population with scores between 554 and 444 4. The proportion of the population with scores between 554 and 590 5. The verbal GRE score for the percentile rank of 33% **To receive credit for this problem you will need to show your work.
