Based on data from the students in the UC system, the report concludes that "test scores are currently better predictors of first-year GPA than high school grade point average." [79] The report continues: scores are also good at predicting total college GPA and the possibility a student will graduate. While the "predictive power of test scores ...
Grading in education is the application of standardized measurements to evaluate different levels of student achievement in a course. Grades can be expressed as letters (usually A to F), as a range (for example, 1 to 6), percentages, or as numbers out of a possible total (often out of 100).

This way, students will have a test that is suited to fit their capability, and will (hypothetically) result in a score that is true to the student in question. However, the way the tests are distributed is still fairly questionable, as two students who are performing on the same academic level can still receive completely different tests.
