Recently a report was released from ACT reporting that 30% of Nebraska students taking the ACT test scored "College Ready" in all four areas tested- Reading, English, Science and Math.
The definition of College Ready is defined as B or better average (3.0 GPA or higher) at a four year college (like the University or Wayne State).
ACT research has found that students that score at a certain level in Math (or any of the other 3 areas) on the ACT will generally get a B or better in college science classes.
If you look at percent scoring college ready in Math (or any other area) the percentage is higher than 30%. The 30% reflects students meeting the "B" criteria in ALL FOUR areas.
FYI 30% placed Nebraska in the top ten states for percent college ready.
