Relative Effects of English Proficiency on General Admissions Tests versus Subject Tests.
Pennock-Roman, Maria
Research in Higher Education, v43 n5 p601-23 Oct 2002
Examined the degree to which test scores reflect English proficiency using data on students whose native language was Spanish. They had taken the GRE, English proficiency tests, and the PAEG, a test in Spanish used for admission to graduate schools in Puerto Rico. Found that quantitative, analytical, and subject tests are more highly related to underlying academic skills than verbal tests. (EV)
