The Department of Mathematics of the Florida State University gives a mathematics placement test to each entering freshman. This study examines relationships between the scores attained on the mathematics placement test, other tests measuring ability and achievement, and academic success as reflected by grades earned in University classes. The sample for this study is composed of the students who took the placement test as first-time freshmen in the 1953 summer session, the 1953 fall semester, and the 1954 spring semester. This group was selected because its members have had time to complete a four-year program leading to the baccalaureate degree. / Typescript. / "August, 1958." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Dwight B. Goodner, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 55-56).
