Understanding Scores
Three types of scores are reported:
Developmental Scale Scores
Percentiles
Achievement Levels
Developmental Scale
Scores
This score allows for the comparison of the
student’s EOG scores by subject from one
grade to the next. The developmental scale
score is like a ruler that measures growth in
reading and mathematics from year to year.
Just like height in inches, the student’s
scores in reading and mathematics are
expected to increase.
Achievement Levels
These levels are used to identify student
performance.
 Level I: Students lack sufficient knowledge and skills to be
successful at the next grade level.
 Level II: Students have inconsistent mastery of knowledge
and skills and are minimally prepared to be successful at
the next grade level.
 Level III: Students consistently demonstrate mastery of
knowledge and skills and are well prepared for the next
grade level.
 Level IV: Students consistently perform in a superior
manner beyond that required to be proficient at the next
grade level.
