Pretest and Field Test Sampling System from SED

April 2004


SED has developed a new pretest and field test sampling method that uses a multi-year sampling matrix.

This sampling method randomly assigns every public high school in New York State to one of six strands.

You will find information on the new sampling system at www.emsc.nysed.gov/osa/Important%20Notices/damatrix-new.htm.
