> If you teach a class of 250 students, you aren't even aware of the bottom percentile until the first exam is graded.
You don’t need to know which specific 50 students are in the bottom two deciles, just that they exist and that your policy is to teach to what you’ve estimated is the 3rd decile and above.
You will find out who they are in the exams, but you know they exist in next year’s class even before that class is admitted to the uni.
