Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, v42 n2 p135-50 Jun 1998
The academic performance of 840 Swedish college students in four study programs was observed for three years. Students were divided into those admitted on the basis of grade point average (GPA), Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test (SweSAT) scores, and SweSAT scores plus work experience. The last group was less successful than the other two. (SLD)
