Question 981258: If a student stands second a test and eighth from the bottom then how many total students appeared for the test

If a student stands second in the test,
there is student before (or above) him/her.
I assume it means the second student in the list,
called second to be questioned in an oral test.
Or maybe that student's score was the second best among the students who appeared for the test.

If that student stands eighth from the bottom,
it means there are other students below (or after) him/her.

Counting that student who stands second in the test,
plus the student before (or above) him/her,
plus the other students below (or after) him/her,
then the total number of students who appeared for the test is
.
