To help programs and agencies transition from Grade Equivalent scores to Scale Scores, DRC is providing the following TABE 11&12 Scale Score guidance.
The information below is intended to help programs that previously used Grade Equivalent scores identify appropriate Scale Score or Scale Score ranges as the programs transition to TABE 11&12. TABE 11&12 Scale Scores will continue to be used to track educational gains under the U.S. Department of Education's National Reporting System (NRS). Other uses of TABE 11&12 Scale Scores, such as acceptance into a program, hiring, or promotion, are at the discretion of state or local agencies.
TABE 11&12 Grade Range guidelines were determined by reviewing the NRS Implementation Guidelines, TABE Performance Level Descriptors, College and Career Readiness Standards for Adult Basic Education Levels, and TABE Cut Scores. To obtain grade range guidelines, DRC created a linear interpolation of the NRS cut score ranges. The grade range guidelines should be used only when a student is assessed at the appropriate NRS level.
