Let’s assume that you have a test score of 190. Here’s a simple example so that you can easily determine the z score. STANDARD NORMAL DISTRIBUTION: Table Values Represent AREA to the LEFT of the Z score. Probabilities in z-tables are accurate only for populations that follow a normal distribution. The shaded area and its probability correspond to the z-score. Corresponding values which are greater than the mean are marked with a positive score in the z-table and respresent the area under the bell curve to the left of z. It seems like not having the value in your table would be a problem, but it's a very small one $-$ since your answer for $P(01$ and $Z< -1$), the integral will be bounded below by the midpoint rule and above by the trapezoidal rule, which usefully bounds where the answer can lieīut, really, just using the limits provided by 3 and $\infty$ is plenty, I imagine. To do it, you will need to use the following formula: As you can see, you will need to first determine the difference between the raw score and the sample mean, and then divide the result by the sample standard deviation. This z-table chart is a probability distribution plot displaying the standard normal distribution. Use the positive Z score table below to find values on the right of the mean as can be seen in the graph alongside. Your question should therefore be modified to ask "*How do I deal with the fact that my table doesn't go as high as my $Z$ value?*" It is a raw value’s relationship to a set of values. Your problem appears to be that your table doesn't go further. Z score is the position of a single data with respect to its mean value which is defined in terms of standard deviation. The standard normal ranges from $-\infty$ to $\infty$. gives a probability that a statistic is between 0 (mean) and Z.
