Subjects and skills that are included in PSAM analysis

PSAM uses assessment data for every subject, including extension courses, VET courses and any other course that contributes to ATAR. This includes English, Mathematics, the separate sciences, Geography, Economics and more.

How PSAM works

PSAM uses proprietary algorithms that produce scaled scores in every subject, based on assessment data from our progress and placement tests, NAPLAN, the curriculum authorities and other sources.

 

The tool analyses student results and provides scaled score estimates, which can be used to identify underachieving students and provide them with the support they need to succeed.

 

This includes both the ability to estimate and forecast their ATAR scores.
