OVERVIEW: Fee Waivers/Fee Reduction for SAT, AP and PSAT/NMSQT
Florida - Public Schools
Note: SAT and AP fee reduction allocation numbers are not available. The number of PSAT/NMSQT fee waivers reported reflects those students whose test fees were covered by a fee waiver or an agreement with the state or district designed to support students underrepresented in college-going populations. As part of such an agreement, the state or districts paid the test fees for juniors at a reduced cost.

Non-Core Academic Preparation. SAT takers who have NOT taken four or more years of English, three or more years of math, three or more years of natural sciences, and three or more years of social sciences and history based on self-reported answers to the SAT Questionnaire.
Data NotesParticipation. Test-takers who have valid scores. The data in this report includes students in the class of 2010 who took the SAT through March 2010. Seniors who tested for the first time in May and June are not included in the detailed analyses. In total, over 1.59 million college-bound seniors in the class of 2010 took the SAT
Graduating Seniors. High school seniors who have indicated that they will be graduating in the reported academic year. All SAT takers in the 2010 graduating class took the writing section. 2006 through 2008 graduates include some students who tested prior to March 2005 and did not take the writing section.
SAT Takers. Please note that statistical information about SAT and SAT Subject Test takers is based on a year’s graduating seniors. This means that all statistical summaries are based on the most recent SAT and all SAT Subject Test scores of these graduating seniors.
Enrollment. The enrollment figures for the SAT and SAT Subject Tests are based on the projections of high school graduates in 2006 to 2010 by the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education. A degree of caution should be exercised when reviewing the percent participation numbers. The College Board has occasionally encountered scenarios where the number of SAT takers has exceeded the projected number of high school graduates from a state. This situation is likely to occur when the projected sample size for certain racial ethnic categories is small. To avoid misrepresenting the participation rate of students, the College Board reports a participation rate of 95 percent in any situation where the participation rate is equal to or greater than 95 percent.
Self-Reported Ethnic Group. When test-takers register for the SAT, they complete an optional registration form called the SAT Questionnaire. This questionnaire asks students to indicate their ethnic group membership. The groupings provided for this question are American Indian or Alaskan Native; Asian, Asian American, or Pacific Islander; African American or black; Mexican or Mexican American; Puerto Rican; Latin American, South American, Central American, or other Hispanic or Latino; white; and Other. A small percentage of students indicate “Other” or do not provide a response.
Hispanic Ethnic Group. Students who indicated Mexican or Mexican American; Puerto Rican; Other Hispanic, Latino, or Latin American are combined into Hispanic.
Minority Group. Students who indicated any ethnic group other than white and provided a response were counted in this group.
Change from Last Year. The change from last year for frequency data (number of test-takers or exams) is represented as a percent change. It is obtained by subtracting the previous year’s total from the current year and then dividing this difference by the previous year’s total, which is then multiplied by 100. Change in mean score from last year is represented by the actual change in scale score. It is calculated by subtracting the previous year’s mean score from that of the current year.
Core Academic Preparation. SAT takers who have taken four or more years of English, three or more years of math, three or more years of natural sciences, and three or more years of social sciences and history based on self-reported answers to the SAT Questionnaire.
Number of SAT takers by PSAT/NMSQT Participation. Based on self-reported answers to the SAT Questionnaire.
PSAT/NMSQT and AP Takers. PSAT/NMSQT and AP tests are administered once a year. Statistical summaries for each year are based on a snapshot of all test-takers for that year's administration.
PSAT/NMSQT. The PSAT/NMSQT is administered each October to high school students. The PSAT/NMSQT has a critical reading, mathematics, and writing section.
Number of PSAT/NMSQT Takers. Please note that this report counts a test-taker only if the student has a critical reading, mathematics and writing score.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

Note: 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 the recentered 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 the recentered scale prior to computing the mean. From 2000–2010, all scores are reported on the recentered scale.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

Note: 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 the recentered 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 the recentered scale prior to computing the mean. From 2000–2010, all scores are reported on the recentered scale.

College Board Research Results / October 2009 PSAT/NMSQT
Group: All Students
This table displays the results of the College Board research conducted in 1998 and 2004 (which shows the probability students have, at any given PSAT/NMSQT score range, to achieve an AP Exam grade of 3 or higher), and applies the research to your students. The table is designed to assist educators in identifying additional students who may have the potential to be successful in AP courses. For example, 61.9% of those students who received a Mathematics score between 56 and 60 (column A) received 3 or better on the AP Calculus AB Exam (column C). This percentage, as well as other resulting percentages, may be interpreted as probabilities, or success rates, for how future students are likely to perform on AP Exams given the same PSAT/NMSQT score range. Column B contains the number of your students whose scores fall into each score band. Column D contains possible AP candidates, after the research probabilities were applied to column B. Column E is a summation of possible AP candidates. Each row in column E displays a running count of possible AP candidates at and above a particular score band.
This table includes students that received a score on the May 2010 administration of the AP Calculus AB Exam. This table is displayed to show your students’ current year's participation in the AP Exam, relative to the current year's PSAT/NMSQT takers. Some of your current PSAT/NMSQT takers might be candidates for AP courses next year.

While this summary report gives you a sense of the number of students to consider for AP, it should be used in conjunction with AP Potential (http://appotential.collegeboard.com) to generate a roster of students who are likely to score a 3 or better on a given AP Exam. Additionally, an evaluation of students’ academic preparation and motivation is highly recommended, as it is essential to the process of identifying students likely to succeed in AP courses.

College Board Research Results / October 2009 PSAT/NMSQT
Group: Other Hispanic, Latino, or Latin American
This table displays the results of the College Board research conducted in 1998 and 2004 (which shows the probability students have, at any given PSAT/NMSQT score range, to achieve an AP Exam grade of 3 or higher), and applies the research to your students. The table is designed to assist educators in identifying additional students who may have the potential to be successful in AP courses. For example, 61.9% of those students who received a Mathematics score between 56 and 60 (column A) received 3 or better on the AP Calculus AB Exam (column C). This percentage, as well as other resulting percentages, may be interpreted as probabilities, or success rates, for how future students are likely to perform on AP Exams given the same PSAT/NMSQT score range. Column B contains the number of your students whose scores fall into each score band. Column D contains possible AP candidates, after the research probabilities were applied to column B. Column E is a summation of possible AP candidates. Each row in column E displays a running count of possible AP candidates at and above a particular score band.
This table includes students that received a score on the May 2010 administration of the AP Calculus AB Exam. This table is displayed to show your students’ current year's participation in the AP Exam, relative to the current year's PSAT/NMSQT takers. Some of your current PSAT/NMSQT takers might be candidates for AP courses next year.

Relationship of PSAT/NMSQT Critical Reading and Writing Scores with AP English Literature

Existing AP ParticipationPossibilities for AP Participation
While this summary report gives you a sense of the number of students to consider for AP, it should be used in conjunction with AP Potential (http://appotential.collegeboard.com) to generate a roster of students who are likely to score a 3 or better on a given AP Exam. Additionally, an evaluation of students’ academic preparation and motivation is highly recommended, as it is essential to the process of identifying students likely to succeed in AP courses.
Group: Hispanic Overall
This table displays the results of the College Board research conducted in 1998 and 2004 (which shows the probability students have, at any given PSAT/NMSQT score range, to achieve an AP Exam grade of 3 or higher), and applies the research to your students. The table is designed to assist educators in identifying additional students who may have the potential to be successful in AP courses. For example, 65.8% of those students who received a score between 106 and 110 as a result of adding together their Critical Reading and Writing scores (column A) received 3 or better on the AP English Literature Exam (column C). This percentage, as well as other resulting percentages, may be interpreted as probabilities, or success rates, for how future students are likely to perform on AP Exams given the same PSAT/NMSQT score range. Column B contains the number of your students whose scores fall into each score band. Column D contains possible AP candidates, after the research probabilities were applied to column B. Column E is a summation of possible AP candidates. Each row in column E displays a running count of possible AP candidates at and above a particular score band.
This table includes students that received a score on the May 2010 administration of the AP English Literature Exam. This table is displayed to show your students’ current year's participation in the AP Exam, relative to the current year's PSAT/NMSQT takers. Some of your current PSAT/NMSQT takers might be candidates for AP courses next year.

College Board Research Results / October 2009 PSAT/NMSQT
Group: All Students
This table includes students that received a score on the May 2010 administration of the AP U.S. History Exam. This table is displayed to show your students’ current year's participation in the AP Exam, relative to the current year's PSAT/NMSQT takers. Some of your current PSAT/NMSQT takers might be candidates for AP courses next year.

May 2010 AP U.S. History
This table displays the results of the College Board research conducted in 1998 and 2004 (which shows the probability students have, at any given PSAT/NMSQT score range, to achieve an AP Exam grade of 3 or higher), and applies the research to your students. The table is designed to assist educators in identifying additional students who may have the potential to be successful in AP courses. For example, 64.2% of those students who received a score between 161 and 170 as a result of adding together their Critical Reading, Mathematics, and Writing scores (column A) received 3 or better on the AP U.S. History Exam (column C). This percentage, as well as other resulting percentages, may be interpreted as probabilities, or success rates, for how future students are likely to perform on AP Exams given the same PSAT/NMSQT score range. Column B contains the number of your students whose scores fall into each score band. Column D contains possible AP candidates, after the research probabilities were applied to column B. Column E is a summation of possible AP candidates. Each row in column E displays a running count of possible AP candidates at and above a particular score band.

College Board Research Results / October 2009 PSAT/NMSQT
Group: Other Hispanic, Latino, or Latin American
This table displays the results of the College Board research conducted in 1998 and 2004 (which shows the probability students have, at any given PSAT/NMSQT score range, to achieve an AP Exam grade of 3 or higher), and applies the research to your students. The table is designed to assist educators in identifying additional students who may have the potential to be successful in AP courses. For example, 64.2% of those students who received a score between 161 and 170 as a result of adding together their Critical Reading, Mathematics, and Writing scores (column A) received 3 or better on the AP U.S. History Exam (column C). This percentage, as well as other resulting percentages, may be interpreted as probabilities, or success rates, for how future students are likely to perform on AP Exams given the same PSAT/NMSQT score range. Column B contains the number of your students whose scores fall into each score band. Column D contains possible AP candidates, after the research probabilities were applied to column B. Column E is a summation of possible AP candidates. Each row in column E displays a running count of possible AP candidates at and above a particular score band.
This table includes students that received a score on the May 2010 administration of the AP U.S. History Exam. This table is displayed to show your students’ current year's participation in the AP Exam, relative to the current year's PSAT/NMSQT takers. Some of your current PSAT/NMSQT takers might be candidates for AP courses next year.

> The 2006 PSAT/NMSQT writing skills section was the first to be created from the new SAT writing section, which resulted in changes to the writing score scale. As a result, new expectancy tables were created for those AP exams involving PSAT writing. This was accomplished by placing the old PSAT writing scores used by Ewing, Camara & Millsap (2006) on the new PSAT writing scale and recomputing the expectancy tables following the same procedures that were previously used. The new expectancy tables will be published in a forthcoming research note.
This report includes sophomore and junior PSAT/NMSQT test-takers having valid Critical Reading, Mathematics, and Writing scores. These selection criteria are consistent with the methodology used by Ewing, Camara, and Millsap in "The Relationship Between PSAT/NMSQT Scores and AP Examination Grades: A Follow-Up Study" (http://www.collegeboard.com/research/pdf/06898CBR06-1.pdf).
Pages in this report are not included if there are fewer than 25 PSAT/NMSQT test-takers in that particular group.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.
Statistical Definitions

*Writing data are based on students who took the current version of the SAT, first administered in March 2005. All students in the 2010 cohort took the SAT writing section. The writing section contains one essay (30 percent of the total score) and 49 multiple-choice questions (70 percent of the total score). Essay scores range from 2-12, with a very small percentage of students (less than 0.3 percent) receiving scores of 0 on the essay, for essays written completely off topic. Multiple-choice scores range from 20 to 80.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.

2010 College-Bound Seniors
The SAT Program®
The SAT® (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 one-hour, mostly multiple-choice 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. College-Bound Seniors 2010 includes students who tested through March 2010.†
College-Bound Seniors presents data for high school graduates in the year 2010 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 self-reported information has been documented and the college-bound population is relatively stable from year to year, SAT Questionnaire responses from these students can be considered accurate. Therefore, you can use this report to:
• Interpret scores of individual students within the broader context of data aggregated across groups of college- bound seniors.
• Study changes over time in the characteristics of students taking SAT tests.
• Look at 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 and in schoolwork.
• Occasional updates are made to the optional Student Questionnaire to improve student response rates. Fluctuations from year to year should be interpreted with appropriate consideration.
• Not all students in a high school, school district, or state take the SAT. Since the population of test-takers is self-selected, using aggregate SAT 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 SAT scores for subgroups requires unique considerations. The most significant factor to consider in interpreting SAT scores for any group, or subgroup, of test-takers is the proportion of students taking the test. For example, if state data are being
Using This Report
The following terms are used throughout this report. For more statistical information, visit the College Board Web site at www.collegeboard.com.
MeanThe mean is the arithmetic average.
PercentileThe 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 scoreA 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 200 to 800 point 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.
considered, it is appropriate to recognize that in some states there are lower participation rates. Typically, test-takers 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 SAT mean scores reported for students will be higher than the national average.
