Notice: If you are reading this page, there’s a good chance that you have data we need. Please contact us at kmurphy@uwm.edu to see how you can contribute the scores from your students to the calculation of these norms. The only way the exams on this page will move from this preliminary table is to have people like you send in scores and student answers. We’ll make it as easy as possible for you to participate. In particular, if you go to the Score Reporting page, you can receive immediate feedback about how your students’ scores compare with the data we’ve received so far.
Preliminary norms for a small number of tests have been compiled. To obtain these, please contact us at kmurphy@uwm.edu.
