Did anyone ever hear of this?

Interesting… I still wouldn’t want it used as a measure. For example… if D’s CR PSAT score goes up this year, will it be because of her English teacher? Or maybe because of the extracurricular Latin class she is taking that is expanding her vocabulary (a class that the English teacher has nothing to do with)? Or… maybe because of the additional classics and poetry reading she has undertaken on her own to improve her Quiz Bowl knowledge?

And if it goes down, is it because the teacher was ineffective? Or because she had a horrible head cold the day she took the test?
