NRS Nugget #1 GED Outcome

It's that time of year when programs are gathering Follow Up Outcome Data. When a program learns that a student has successfully passed the GED exam, the program should record that favorable outcome. Under NYS Policy, if a student who passes the GED AND Pre Tested at NRS Level 6 in either Math or Reading BUT did not show gain in the lower skill area, the NRS Level 6 score may remain in the Current Test Window and the lower NRS score may be archived. Remember, this is only valid when the student has already PASSED the GED and has at least on NRS Level 6 score.
