Understanding Your Test Results

For each test or subtest, your performance is evaluated against an established standard. The minimum passing score for each test or subtest is approved by the TSPC and is based, in part, on the professional judgments and recommendations of Oregon educators.

The total test or subtest score is based on the number of raw score points earned on each section (multiple-choice section and, for some tests, constructed-response section); the proportion accounted for by each section, if applicable; and the scaling of that score. Raw scores are converted to a scale of 100 to 300.
