  • Remedial Placement Scores Under Current Board Policy
    BOARD OF REGENTS BRIEFING PAPER HANDBOOK REVISION: Remedial Placement Scores BACKGROUND & POLICY CONTEXT OF ISSUE: Under current Board policy (Title 4, Chapter 16, Section 1), initial placement into English and mathematics is based upon standardized test scores. The current policy provides score ranges for placement into remedial and college-level English and mathematics. Staff recommends that in order to be placed into a college-level English course, a student must achieve an ACT English score of at least 18 or an SAT critical reading score of at least 440. In order to be placed into a college-level mathematics course, staff recommends that a student achieve an ACT math score of at least 22 or an SAT math score of at least 500. Universities and colleges may set other English and math scores if supported by institutional research. Further, as is provided in the current policy, placement decisions may also be made through formal assessment of students, including departmental diagnostic tests. Accuplacer, Compass, or other appropriate placement tools may also be used for placement in lieu of ACT or SAT. This change provides a needed update in scores for placement that are supported by national data and empirical research. The recommended ACT cut scores are based on ACT’s College Readiness Benchmark Scores. The College Readiness Benchmark Score is the minimum score in a specific subject area determined by ACT to indicate a 50 percent chance of obtaining a B or higher or about a 75 percent change of obtaining a C or higher in the corresponding entry-level credit-bearing college course.
