A need existed to develop a graphic procedure to predict |
|
student success in 2-year engineering technology |
|
programs, based on ACT scores and high school grades. The |
|
study stemmed from the need to help students identify |
|
their chances of success, to help students clarify their |
|
goals, and to indicate needed institutional responses. |
|
Regression analysis determined how well college |
|
achievement correlated with a composite of high school |
|
grades and ACT scores. Records of 48 students from |
|
September 1970 through June 1973 provided the data. The |
|
analysis resulted in a coefficient of correlation of r = |
|
.85 to provide a fairly high predictive measure. The |
|
paper illustrates a reliable means of objectively |
|
predicting student success based on ACT scores and high |
|
school grades. (Author) |
