Unfortunately if it is truly exponential it should go much lower, 60%. That's what exponential means:)


Too many people throw in numbers that are absolutely wild guesses. New managers tend to believe what is said in here.

1. Exponential can mean anything (about 98% of training would be straight proportional).
2. No one except the BBs can confirm that. And they have not been willing to blab out that for some years now.

3. Personally I cannot believe that it has such a great effect. 47 minutes sound ok for me. But it tends to be less than 98% of training.

Everything we do here is a wild guess. The real thing is that no one knows for certain. One thing we know for sure is 48+ is the way to go

My trainee got 39 minutes in One on One in F last week, and popped in JS(It was the 4th week of one on one, so it was right on queue)

These guesses are horrendous.

If the training model is exponential, and 48 minutes is 100% training, then the math works out like this:

48^2 = 2304

47^2 = 2209


So, percent of training achieved = 2209/2304 = 95.88%

I don't want to be the nerd or anything... but exponential in maths is really like....

2^48=281474976710656
2^47=140737488355328

Thus => 50%. That is was exponential really means

But I seriously doubt that this is the case, and the difference between 47 and 48 is more like 5-10%, so your guess should be right:)

isn't exponential everything with an exponential funktion "^"

That´s how WE learn it in Germany. But maybe we are just taught wrong.

So, what Romanians are idiots? please stop right there

well, yeah, but your supposed to exponentiate the same base, not a different base. I'm not sure what are the math terms in English for this, but if you put like Arthur said:

48^2 = 2304

47^2 = 2209

it's a different function, it's like calling f(x) and g(x)
instead what i said was:

2^48=281474976710656
2^47=140737488355328


f(47) and f(48). Get it, now? This is what I was trying to say. I agree that some may disagree with me, but never mock my intelligence, no one should be aloud to do that.

It was meant funny. Sorry if you feel offended by that.

I just wanted to point out, that exponential functions can vary a lot and bring out infinite results, depending on how it is built.
No offense against anyone... Relax please.

It felt offensive, and I was a bit iffy to begin with, so I also apologize on my part:) The exp functions can vary quite a lot, there's no way other than experimenting, to know the exact numbers

N^c (where c is a constant) is polynomial..
c^N is exponential..

a simple equation:
c^48 = 100 /log
48logc = log100
c~1.1007

now for c=1.1 we have:
1.1007^48 ~100
1.1007^47 ~ 90.87

however, the constant can have whatever value, and then they can scale it to 100%..
for example, if c were 1.15, then:
1.15^48 = 819.4
1.15^47 = 712.52

and 712.52/819.3 ~ 87%..

Lol. Mathematics is the same on whole world (and even universe). And therefore if we meet extraterrestrial civilization then our first contact will be based on mathematics, to show that human are intelligent form of life ;-)
