> 37 but < 65 on the

Arithmetic unit OR

< 27 on the Algebra unit

> 65 on the Arithmetic unit

AND > 27 but < 44  on the

Algebra unit

>65 on the Arithmetic unit

AND >44 but <81 on the

Algebra unit

> 62 but < 85 on the College Math unit

 

UMFK

 

< 35th percentile

on Arithmetic unit (43-44 usual score)

 

>35th percentile overall

 

 

UMM
