[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are many nuances to this that most people don't know and it makes it hard to use this data as an indication of anything. Like the poster above said, students don't take as many SOLs as they used to. Certain ones are tests most people take (Bio, Alg 1), and then others are pretty much only taken by students who failed those two or have transferred in (Chemistry, Earth Science, Alg 2, etc). Or they are taking some only for federal participation and don't actually have to pass it (Alg 2 or Geometry in some circumstances). Finally, substitute tests are being used much more often than they used to, which is part of the reason why there are less test takers for SOLs now than there used to be (using a PSAT subscore instead of an SOL). The data doesn't say what you think it does if you know all the variables [/quote] You have to look closer and it’s not good.[/quote]
