This table may be used to relate SAT I V+M scores to ACT Composite scores. The estimates are based on the test scores of 103,525 students from fourteen (14) universities and two (2) states who took both the ACT and the SAT I between October 1994 and December 1996. Because the ACT and the SAT I have different content, students' actual scores on the ACT could differ significantly from the concordance estimates in the table. Source: ACT, Inc. Questions about the concordance study may be directed to ACT's Research Division (319/337-1471). January, 1998 |
