On Kentucky's KSA, Grade 7 Mathematics is reported on a scale from 400 to 600, and each score falls into one of 4 performance levels. Reaching Proficient (at 505 or above) is the state's grade-level, on-track benchmark.
| Level | Score range | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Novice | 400–495 | The lowest level, well below grade-level expectations |
| Apprentice | 496–504 | Approaching grade-level expectations |
| Proficient | 505–521 | Meeting grade-level expectations (the state proficiency line) |
| Distinguished | 522–600 | The highest level, above grade-level expectations |
Statewide in 2024, about 40% of Grade 7 students reached Proficient or Distinguished in Math. The bar above shows the share at each level (left = lowest).
A score's meaning depends on where it lands in the ranges above, and on how it compares to other students. Our free tool turns a score into an estimated percentile versus the child's school, district and the whole state, so you can see exactly where a score stands, not just its level.
