TABE TEST SCORESBy Veronica Sehrt When using the TABE for placement and documenting progress, it is essential that the correct test is used. The chart shown below is taken from page one of the TABE Complete Battery Forms 7 & 8 Examiner's Manual. This chart shows the grade range that is acceptable for each test level. Dan Gall, CTB McGraw-Hill representative, has stressed the importance of these grade ranges and that any score two or more grade ranges outside of the range for a particular test level is an invalid score. For example, the "M Level" grade range is 3.6-6.9. If a student is tested using the "M Level" and scores 8.9 or higher or 1.6 or lower, this score is invalid and indicates that a different level of the TABE should have been used in order to get a valid score.
