What the research posted showed is that given a GPA range, higher SAT scores where associated with higher rates of college completion, and given an SAT range, a higher GPA was associated with higher completion rates. Thus students with a GPA between 3.00 and 3.32 along with an SAT score above 1100 had a higher 6 year graduation rate than students with a GPA between 3.67 and 4.00 and an SAT score below 800.<br /><br />Students with a GPA between 3.67 and 4.00 and an SAT score below 800 have a 6 year graduation rate of 47%, students with a GPA between 3.67 and 4.00 and an SAT score above 1100 have a 6 year graduation rate of 72%. I think it is an argument to use both GPA and SAT in an admission process, especially in schools where the public is subsidizing education.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
