The Admissions Testing Program (ATP) is a service of the College Board. The 1979 ATP summary reports on college-bound seniors were produced for each region of the United States, including New England, the Middle, Southern, Midwestern, Southwestern, Rocky Mountain, and Western States. The national and each regional report are in separate booklets. The national report provides information on the number of students who took the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and completed the Student Descriptive Questionnaire (SDQ). It summarizes the information, explains the components, and presents the statistics in several tables. The major areas of information in the national and regional reports include test scores, high school record, student socioeconomic characteristics, college attendance and study plans, and high school facility types. The regional reports additionally include the statistical records of all 1979 seniors identified by their school code as being from that region. (DWH)
