Using This Report
The SAT® I: Reasoning Test and the SAT II: Subject Tests, theprimary components of the SAT Program, are designed toassess many of the skills that are important to students' successin college. Because the subject matter of high school courses aswell as grading standards vary widely, the tests have beendeveloped to provide a common standard against which studentscan be compared. Most students also complete the optionalStudent Descriptive Questionnaire (SDQ) when they register totake SAT Program tests, providing valuable contextualinformation to aid in interpreting and understanding individualand group scores.
look at year-to-year educational and demographic changes inthis population, along with changes in test performance.
Keep in mind, however, that:
relationships between test scores and other factors such aseducational background, gender, racial/ethnic background,parental education, and household income are complex andinterdependent. These factors do not directly affect testperformance; rather, they are associated with educationalexperiences both on tests such as the SAT I and inschoolwork.
not all students in a high school, school district, or state takethe SAT I. Since the population of test takers is self-selected,using aggregate SAT I scores to compare or evaluateteachers, schools, districts, states or other educational unitsis not valid, and the College Board strongly discouragessuch uses.
school graduates in the year 2001 who participated in the SATProgram during their high school years. Students are countedonce no matter how often they tested, and only their latestscores and most recent SDQ responses are summarized.Because the accuracy of self-reported information has beendocumented and the college-bound senior population isrelatively stable from year to year, SDQ responses from thesestudents can be considered highly accurate. Therefore, you canuse this report to:
interpreting SAT I scores for subgroups requires uniqueconsiderations. The most significant factor to consider ininterpreting SAT I scores for any group, or subgroup, of testtakers is the proportion of students taking the test. Forexample, if state data are being considered, it is appropriate torecognize that in some states there are lower participationrates. Typically, test takers in these states have strongacademic backgrounds and apply to the nation's mostselective colleges and scholarship programs. For these states,it is expected that the SAT I mean scores reported forstudents will be higher than the national average.
interpret scores of individual students within the broadercontext of data aggregated across groups of college-boundseniors;
study changes over time in the characteristics of studentstaking SAT tests; and

*For 1972-1986 a formula was applied to the original mean and standard deviation to convert the mean to the recentered scale. For 1987-1995 individual student scores were converted to therecentered scale and then the mean was recomputed. From 1996-1999, nearly all students received scores on the recentered scale. Any score on the original scale was converted to therecentered scale prior to computing the mean. For 2000 and 2001, all scores are reported on the recentered scale.

Whereas most SAT II tests are achievement tests in a given curriculum area or academic subject, the ELPT is aproficiency test in the area of English as a Second Language. As such, the ELPT should not be linked to theSAT II 200-800 score scale used for subject achievement tests. ELPT is on a separate scale ranging from 901-999.
