For example, Ecctis found alignment between the skills and knowledge needed to achieve an A in Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended and a score of 700-800 on the SAT Math Test.  \nContext  \nCambridge Assessment International Education (Cambridge) is a not-for-profit organisation operating in 160 countries and across nine world regions.1 Cambridge offers international qualifications spanning from primary to pre-university years, each offered at one of the four stages of the Cambridge Pathway: Primary, Lower Secondary, Upper Secondary, and Advanced.  \nIn 2022, a joint study by Cambridge and Arizona State University found that IGCSE Mathematics is a good indicator of college readiness and first-year performance.2 In this  \n1 Cambridge. (2023) . About us. What we do. Available from: [https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/about](https://www.cambridgeinternational.org/about)us/what-we-do/  \n2 CISION. PR Newswire. (2023) . Study Finds that Cambridge International Students Enrolled at Arizona State University Show Strong Performance Across College Readiness Metrics. Available from:  \n[https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/study-finds-that-cambridge-international-students-enrolled-at-](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/study-finds-that-cambridge-international-students-enrolled-at-)  \nCopyright © 2023 Ecctis [projects@ecctis.co.uk](projects@ecctis.co.uk)  \ncontext, Ecctis was commissioned by Cambridge to undertake an in-depth mapping of the IGCSE Mathematics (0580) assessment against the College Board’s SAT Math Test.3 The study identified key similarities and differences in assessment structure, skills, content, and demand, before making grade comparisons between the two assessments. The study focused on the 2023/24 IGCSE syllabus and the paper-based SAT Math Test.  \nThis Executive Summary relates to the findings for the Extended tier of IGCSE Mathematics (0580) . Some findings of the wider study are different for the Core tier – these are detailed in the full report and in a distinct Executive Summary.  \nSummary  \nThe IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended and SAT Math Test have clear points of alignment in their skills, content, and demand. The below SAT score ranges were identified as the most accurate comparisons for the following selected IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended grades:4  \n\n| IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended grade | SAT Math Test score |\n| --- | --- |\n| A | 700-800 |\n| B | 600-690 |\n| C | 500-590 |\n| E* | 300-390* |\n\n*The same result was found for the IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Core tier.  \nOverall, the grade comparison analysis indicated that:  \n􀀁 Candidates who achieve a high grade on the IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended demonstrate comparable skills and knowledge to those reaching the top score ranges of the SAT Math Test.  \n􀀁 Candidates achieving a grade C on the IGCSE Mathematics (0580) Extended demonstrate comparable skills and knowledge to those required to meet the SAT Math Test’s ‘Benchmark for College and Career Readiness’.5  \nMethodological approach  \nEcctis applied a bespoke methodology to undertake a comparative analysis of the IGCSE Mathematics (0580) and SAT Math Test. The methodology included a comprehensive mapping method for skills and content, which was complemented by an assessment sample review. To assess item demand, Ecctis used an expert panel approach, whereby each expert6 conducted an independent review of items from an assessment sample and subsequently took part in a panel to discuss and reach a consensus on the judgements.  \narizona-state-university-show-strong-performance-across-college-readiness-metrics-301600183 .html ; Patelis, T. , Chi, K.
