Callicutt, Laurie T.2022-03-162022-03-16195313922513https://hdl.handle.net/10657/8950The purpose of this investigation was to make a study of the relationships existing between undergraduate marks and graduate marks as a possible means of predicting graduate school success in nine Texas colleges and universities. These relationships were established through computing correlations between the grades gathered on 3,000 graduate students who had been awarded the master's degree from 1947-48 through 1951-52. Such factors as sex differences, veteran or non-veteran status, transfers and non-transfers, areas of academic study, and the time-lag factor between the awarding of the baccalaureate and graduate degrees were studied to determine their effect on the relationships.application/pdfenThis item is protected by copyright but is made available here under a claim of fair use (17 U.S.C. §107) for non-profit research and educational purposes.
