Comparability of ACT and SAT Test Scores,

Abstract

Attempting to adhere to the present scheme of the ABDQC when using both the ACT and SAT batteries presents some inherent problems. Unlike the problem of equivalent scores, the problem of comparable scores is one of 'equating' tests of different function or emphasis. Consequently, direct conversions from ACT to SAT scores should be avoided if possible. This report presents a curvilinear method of equating ACT-E/SAT-V, ACT-M/SAT-M, and ACBA/CBA for use in the admissions process. (Author)
