Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The definition given matches that of the median. The mode is the most common or frequently occurring score in a distribution, but this is not the definition given in any of the choices. The mean is the mathematical average, but this is also not the definition given in any of the choices. The choice of A is incorrect as it correctly defines the mode but not the question asked.
