For accelerated testers, how were the SAT and ACT cut points for Approaches, Meets, and Masters determined?
The Meets cut points align with existing College Board standards that demonstrate that students who meet or exceed the benchmark have a substantial chance of earning at least a C in firstsemester college classes. Approaches standards were set to align with the Meets standard, and the Masters standards were set to align with Meets and the 90th percentile average for 2017, 2018, and 2019 nationwide SAT results. After SAT cut points were set, corresponding subject-area ACT cut points were set using SAT/ACT concordance tables.
