| ‡Reporting standards not met (too few cases for a reliable estimate). | ||||||||||||||
| 1 Includes basic math, general math, applied math, pre-algebra, and algebra I. | ||||||||||||||
| 2 Includes courses such as actuarial sciences, pure mathematics, discrete math, and advanced functions and modeling. | ||||||||||||||
| 3 Includes other racial/ethnic groups not shown separately, as well as students for whom information on race/ethnicity or sex was missing. | ||||||||||||||
| 4 SD estimates include both students with an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and students with a plan under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (a “504 plan”). IEPs are only for students who require specialized instruction, whereas 504 plans apply to students who require accommodations but may not require specialized instruction. | ||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Scale ranges from 0 to 300. Includes students tested with accommodations (6 percent of all 12th-graders); excludes only those students with disabilities and English language learners who were unable to be tested even with accommodations (3 percent of all 12th-graders). For a transcript to be included in the analyses, it had to meet three requirements: (1) the graduate received either a standard or honors diploma, (2) the graduate’s transcript contained 16 or more Carnegie credits, and (3) the graduate’s transcript contained more than 0 Carnegie credits in English courses. Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. | ||||||||||||||
