Georgia About This Report This report presents data on students in the class of 2022 who took the SAT® during high school, as well as takers of PSAT-related assessments—the PSAT/NMSQT® , PSAT™ 10 , and PSAT™ 8/9—during the 2021-22 school year. Within each assessment, test takers are counted only once and only their latest scores and most recent demographic responses are summarized. Most students supply optional demographic information when they register for or take tests in the SAT Suite of Assessments, which provides valuable contextual information to aid in interpreting and understanding individual and group scores. This report is compiled by the College Board as a summary of the SAT program results, inclusive of all test takers. In some states, the SAT is offered as an accountability assessment to all students in 11th grade.* Because this report is focused on the total SAT test taking activity of the graduating Class of 2022 , it is not comparable with or a substitute for data that is provided by state agencies regarding their state testing programs. Score Ranges Here are the ranges for reported scores for the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing ( ERW) and Math sections of each assessment in the SAT Suite: · SAT sections: 200–800 · PSAT/NMSQT and PSAT 10 sections: 160–760 · PSAT 8/9 sections: 120–720 Race/Ethnicity Data Collection and Reporting In June 2015 , the College Board aligned its collection and reporting of race/ethnicity categories with U.S. Department of Education guidelines. In addition, while previous SAT cohort assignment reflected self-reported information collected during SAT or SAT Subject Test registration only, it now leverages the most recent information from the SAT, PSAT-related assessment, or AP programs in an effort to more closely align with school, district, and state data systems. For these reasons, we advise caution when comparing data points in this report to those in previous reports. SAT School Day In the United States, students may take the SAT on a weekday in their school when it is provided by their state, district, or school through the SAT School Day program. SAT School Day is administered on test dates in the fall and spring. Students testing in the most recent school year as part of a state testing program are only included in the cohort-level data presented here if they are a member of the graduating class of 2022. Caveat on Using the Data Relationships between test scores and other background or contextual factors are complex and interdependent. Caution is warranted when using scores to compare or evaluate teachers, schools, districts, or states, because of differences in participation and test taker populations. Statistical Definitions Mean score: The mean score is the arithmetic average of a defined set of test scores. Mean score statistics are reported here if there are ten or more students in a group or subgroup. Due to rounding, the mean section scores ( ERW and Math) may not add up to the Total score. Scaled score: A scaled score is the result of adjusting a raw score (the number of questions answered correctly) in ways that ensure that results across different test forms are comparable. The scores shown here and reported to educators, students, and institutions are scaled scores. Standard deviation (SD) : The standard deviation is a measure of the variability of a set of scores. If test scores cluster tightly around the mean score, as they do when the group tested is relatively homogeneous, the standard deviation is smaller than it would be with a more diverse group and a more widely dispersed distribution of scores. Median Family Income Estimates To generate high-level estimates of participation in the SAT Suite of Assessments by income band, we estimate family income by linking students to the median family income in the census tract in which they live, according to American Community Survey data. Median family income estimates are ava

FAQs

What student groups are covered in the 2022 Georgia SAT Suite report?

The report covers students in the Class of 2022 who took the SAT during high school, plus PSAT-related assessment takers (PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, PSAT 8/9) during the 2021–22 school year.

How does the report count test takers within each assessment?

Each test taker is counted only once per assessment, using their latest scores and most recent demographic responses.

What do the college and career readiness benchmarks represent?

Benchmarks are tied to probabilities of success: SAT Math and ERW benchmarks correspond to a 75% chance of earning at least a C in specific first-semester college courses, while grade-level benchmarks reflect typical annual growth toward those SAT benchmarks from grades 8 through 12.
