What changes were made to Assessment Series data displays?

For the 2024-2025 school year, CommonLit made two changes to data displays for the Assessment Series:

  • skipped questions are now treated as incorrect answers in individual standards categories, and
  • in all grades, the cutoff score for the On Grade Level Performance Group is 205 and the cutoff score for the Above Grade Level Performance Group is 220.
