How are dantes exams scored? Is it on a raw/scaled score like the clep tests are?

I don't know for certain, but I assume it must be scaled. The range is still 20-80 (as it is for CLEP), though I have had tests that require 47 or 49 to pass, rather than the 50 that CLEP requires.

There are a few new tests where 400 is passing on a scale of 500.

I would be curious to hear if anyone else knows exactly how the raw score translates into a scaled score with DANTES
