On a WERK printout there is a number in parentheses to the right of the "rating". What does that number represent. Thanks in advance!

Never mind I found it. I did not realize the numbers could be so high...

Just FYI, the higher they are, the more likely the sample size is tiny. If you see like a 4000 percent variance or some ridiculous number, it's definitely that kind of thing. I'm far more enthusiastic if I see an A or A+ that just barely fits into its ranking because it's a likelier sign of a reasonable sample size.

Thank you. I am sure the sample size is small so it makes perfect sense. It will be interesting to check that again in a year and see if the number has come down.
