encephalization quotient

Also known as "brain-to-body mass ratio", this term commonly abbreviated as EQ refers to the ratio between the actual or measured brain size of a species to the size predicted in reference to its body mass. Please note that modern humans (Homo sapiens) have an EQ between 6 and 7, meaning that our brain mass is typically 6 times greater than that of a typical mammal.
Did you know that humans have an EQ (encephalization quotient) of 6 to 7? That means our brains are way bigger than what you’d expect for our body size, which helps explain why we’re so good at thinking outside the box.

EMEF (Email Efficiency Quotient)

An algorithm that determins the efficientcy of an email sent by one person to one or more recipients with no body text but just a subject line. AN efficient email will be no higher than 1000. This calculation is as follows

EMEF = ((SU + (REC*SU)) * .75)

Email Efficiency = Subject line count + (Number of recipients * subject line count)/ the percentage of people that read the email
EMEF (Email Efficiency Quotient) = ((SU + (REC*SU)) * .75)

So for your subject line of approximately 50 characters sent to 33 recipients would be (50 + (33*50)) * .75 = 1275.
