<p>A correlation that did not become evident until 10 days ago given state data over last the last 15 years. I believe the commended score in our state in 2012 was 202, and the score was 215 in our home state that year. That would suggest this year’s score was 216, not 217. and one of my gripes is why could NM not release the selection indexes when the state data came out in the winter. if they knew 500 kids scored 75 or above in CR, 380 in writing, and say 700 in math in a given state, surely they knew 100 kids had a SI of 225 or above, another 200 with SI;'s between 200 and 225, 900 between 215 and 219, and 2200 at at least 210. I’m throwing make believe numbers here but hopefully, my point comes across. I see no good reason to not include the SI score ranges in the state data info that came out earlier this year.</p>
