usually drops in nationwide averages in standardized testing correspond with an increasing number of test takers but:

"he decrease is notable because testing groups generally say that surges in test takers are likely to result in declines in average scores, as a wider cross-section of students is tested. That was not the case this year."

:shock:

All four of the subject tests showed declines.

[quote]Data released by ACT also show [b]a widening gap between the average scores of Asian Americans and everyone else. [/b]All racial and ethnic groups saw declines in their scores compared to the previous year, except for Asian Americans, who were already the top scoring group.[/quote]

The math scores especially took a huge dip nationwide over the last few years.
