Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An outlier is a data point that is significantly different from other points in a data set. In the context of testing or scoring, an outlier may indicate a problem with the testing or scoring procedures. Therefore, an outlier is the best choice for the described situation. Nonlinear plot point and standard error are not relevant in this context. While an error may be related to testing or scoring problems, it is not specific enough to describe the situation of an atypical score.
