<We also used the TABE in an untimed setting and found that
there was no significant difference in it's accuracy in identifying the
student's problems in reading. We marked where the student finished at the
end of the timing, then had them continue until they had completed the test.
We then built individualized curriculum focusing on the particular  problems
that had been identified for each student....Barbara Morey, Port Townsend,

Dear Barbara,

It's nice to know others administer the TABE the way I do.   There are many 
who get upset with us renegade TABE givers, but that's what makes life 
interesting!!  Ellie
