The Algebra I conversion chart

Your raw credits out of 82 are turned into a scale score using a conversion chart published for each administration of the exam, so the raw credits for a given scale score can change from one exam to the next.

Raw credits	Out of 82: Part I 48, Part II 12, Part III 16, Part IV 6
Conversion	A chart published for each administration
Performance levels	Five levels, from NYS Level 1 to NYS Level 5

Why the chart changes

Each exam has different questions, so the chart for each administration sets which raw scores match which scale scores. Check the chart for the exam you sit rather than relying on a number from another year.

What it means for practice

Every credit counts, and constructed-response credits come from shown work. Our practice gives you questions right by topic, never a predicted score or a conversion.

Question 1Part I style

A table of x and y: x = 0, 1, 2, 3 and y = 5, 15, 45, 135.
$x$	$y$
0	5
1	15
2	45
3	135

The table shows four values of a function. Which statement describes the function?

Question 2Part I style

Hours studied and test score for seven students: 1 hour, 62; 2, 66; 3, 71; 4, 70; 5, 78; 6, 83; 7, 85.
Hours studied, $x$	Test score, $y$
1	62
2	66
3	71
4	70
5	78
6	83
7	85

The table shows the number of hours seven students studied and their scores on a test. Which is the equation of the linear regression line for the data, with values rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Questions people ask

How many credits do I need to pass?

It depends on the conversion chart for that exam, which is published for each administration. This course does not predict scores.
