2 The SAT Program The (formerly known as the SAT I: Reasoning Test) assesses student reasoning based on knowledge and skills developed by the students in their course work. The SAT Subject Tests (formerly known as SAT II: Subject Tests) are a series of onehour, mostly multiplechoice tests that measure how much students know about a particular academic subject and how well they can apply that knowledge. Most students also complete the optional SAT Questionnaire (formerly known as the Student Descriptive Questionnaire) when they register to take SAT Program tests, providing valuable contextual information to aid in interpreting and understanding individual and group scores. CollegeBound Seniors 2008 includes students who tested through March Using This Report CollegeBound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2008 who participated in the SAT Program. Students are counted only once, no matter how often they tested, and only their latest scores and most recent SAT Questionnaire responses are summarized. Because the accuracy of selfreported information has been documented and the collegebound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered highly accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to: interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of collegebound seniors; study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests; and look at yeartoyear educational and demographic changes in this population, along with changes in test performance. Keep in mind, however, that: relationships between test scores and other factors such as educational background, gender, racial/ethnic background, parental education, and household income are complex and interdependent. These factors do not directly affect test performance; rather, they are associated with educational experiences both on tests such as the SAT Reasoning Test and in schoolwork. not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the. Since the population of testtakers is selfselected, using aggregate SAT Reasoning Test scores to compare or evaluate teachers, schools, districts, states, or other educational units is not valid, and the College Board strongly discourages such uses. interpreting scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting scores for any group, or subgroup, of testtakers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, testtakers in these states have strong academic backgrounds and apply to the nation's most selective colleges and scholarship programs. For these states, it is expected that the mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average. Statistical Definitions The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at Mean The mean is the arithmetic average. Percentile The percentile, also called the percentile point, is the point on the measurement scale below which a specified percentage of scores falls. The 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile points are often reported for large data sets. The 50th percentile point is also called the median and, like the mean, is an average and a good indicator of the center of the distribution of scores. Comparing the 25th and 75th percentile points gives an idea of the range of scores in the populations reported in this document. Like the standard deviation, the difference between the scores associated with the 75th and 25th percentiles is an indication of the variability of the scores in a particular sample. Scaled score A scaled score is a score that has been converted from the raw score (number of questions answered correctly minus a fraction of the incorrect answers) for reporting. The SAT Program uses the scale. Standard deviation (SD) The standard deviation (SD) is a measure of the variability of a set of scores. If test scores cluster tightly around the mean score, as they do when the group tested is relatively homogeneous, the standard deviation is smaller than it would be with a more diverse group and a greater scatter of scores around the mean. The College Board: Connecting Students to College Success The College Board is a notforprofit membership association whose mission is to connect students to college success and opportunity. Founded in 1900, the association is composed of more than 5,400 schools, colleges, universities, and other educational organizations. Each year, the College Board serves seven million students and their parents, 23,000 high schools, and 3, colleges through major programs and services in college admissions, guidance, assessment, financial aid, enrollment, and teaching and learning. Among its bestknown programs are the SAT, the PSAT/NMSQT, and the Advanced Placement Program (AP ). The College Board is committed to the principles of excellence and equity, and that commitment is embodied in all of its programs, services, activities, and concerns. A note about changes to the SAT Questionnaire: In the academic year, changes to the SAT Questionnaire were made. Sections of this report most notably affected by this change are CourseTaking Patterns and Intended College Major. In this year's report, the questionnaire responses of some students were not reported as their responses did not map to the current reporting tables. For complete details on the changes please visit
