[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It worries me a little that people are posting without making any effort to check their facts. 5 minutes on Google gets you to the answer. The following link is for 2011 and is on the OSSE website. Cut scores are set independently for math and reading, differ for each grade, are a single score, and are not tied to a percentage above/below as the goal is to have 100 percent of children proficient. See page 79 of this report.

 This.  It worries me that in 21st century America, anyone who has been to college and is well spoken believes themselves entitled to have opinions about questions of fact. They believe that since something makes sense to them, it's as good as whatever the truth happens to be.  This is a real problem.  There are right and wrong answers --- not everybody gets to be right.  Pp, instead of spending so much time composing your imaginings into an answer, spend it learning the real answer.[/quote]
