While we are at comparing this year’s scores to past year’s…
now that I have 3 section percentiles, (I don’t know how I missed it before)

if I take these 3 “user percentiles” and go to past year’s data,

and find a section score (average, if there is a range) for that percentile, I expect to find corresponding past year’s score.
I think the resulting score should agree with “concordance table” score. What else can the concordance table be?
But it does not agree.
So I agree that the concordance table is funky and “preliminary” but I think the %iles they are giving us is also “preliminary.”
What do you get for your S2’s if you use %iles and 2014 data file?
I get
2015% 2014 2013 Concordance T('15)
R 92 64 64 60
W 96 67 68 63
M 99 77 77 77
SI 205 208 209 200
