Why Eliminate Raw Scores?
Scaled scores are intended to make scores more meaningful by defining a scale of measurement that is not tied to a particular form of a test. Scaled scores help resolve confusion among users of the score reports when there are changes in the testing program. A major benefit of scaled scores for test takers is that it provides a way for them to compare their level of performance from one administration of the exam to another. A reporting scale that remains constant across test forms enables candidates to make comparisons on how they did.
