MEAP and MME New Cut Scores:
RtI Coach SessionFebruary 2012
Cut score overview
The State Board of Education adopted new cut scores in September 2011
These new scores indicate whether or not a student will be college ready (11th grade) or on track for success in the next grade (3-8th grade).
A step in a series of initiatives to increase content standards to better prepare Michigan students for postsecondary success.
How do we know the scores mean career and college ready?
Used data from Michigan postsecondary institutions
Found the score on the MME that predicted success in a student’s first credit-bearing course in postsecondary education.
Mapped backward from the MME to the MEAP
What is the impact on accountability? Ranking systems: unaffected (rankings
use standardized scale scores, not percent proficient)
AYP: dramatically impacted; percent proficient by school drops considerably; working to reset AMOs, etc.
Educator evaluations: not necessarily impacted; evaluations require “growth” data and still have growth data
What about two year averaging and four year trends?
MDE retroactively applied cut scores to all assessment files
Can estimate two year averaging and four year improvement trends using the new cut scores
Scale Score A conversion of a student's raw score on
a test to a common scale that allows for a numerical comparison between students.

Why did we do this now?
Michigan’s overall focus on increasing the preparation of our students for career and college
Need to be more honest about the performance of our students
Aligns well with new federal requirements
