Thanks George for your insights and link. I don't use the CASAS. Can you help me understand what that 210 score means?

On the 1990 NALS, Hartford is listed as having a 41% adult population rate at Level I. The vast majority of students in our program test at a 210 or below on the CASAS and word recognition and oral reading ability of level 4 and below on the DAR. A smaller proportion of our students (all in the pre-GED category) are at a higher level, and for them progress is much more extensive.
