[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 692639, member: 2426"] I think they were trying to show [B]some[/B] correlation. They were under attack at that point as having no correlation and were attempting to prove to colleges that the test did in fact have some value. They don't explain the models used, but the data of HSGPA vs SAT vs Combined don't really appear to follow any trends, except between very selective and non-selective as described below. Since that time, many colleges have either stopped using or reduced reliance on the SAT, so they weren't entirely successful in that attempt. I agree with [USER=265]@takethepoints[/USER] . A very selective college in the 90s would have had very little variation in HSGPA. If every student at GT in the mid 90s had a 3.8-4.0 HSGPA, the HSGPA isn't going to predict very much. In a college that admits 95% plus of all applicants, there is going to be a very large variation in HSGPA, so it will probably be a better predictor. [/QUOTE]
