Student scores

When students take a test (or you enter student responses manually), the program automatically scores and graphs the results in the Reports section under the Individual tab. Click on a student name, go to a graph, then scroll below to the list of CBM names. Here you will be able to view the student test and find their test score.

Rather you took a benchmark (Deluxe) or a progress monitoring test, you look at the total number your student got right and compare it to the scores other students in the same grade and at the same time of year, got in the Progress Monitoring Scoring Guidelines. These guidelines will provide you with a percentile score.

The percentile scores are generated from those students in a nation-wide sample who've taken on-grade measures that are administered 3 times a year (fall, winter, and spring). When you compare your student's total correct score to those students in this nation-wide sample in the Progress Monitoring Scoring Guidelines, you are given the percentage of scores in the national norm sample that are equal to or less than the score your student received.
