The Relationship of Selected Variables to Performance of Junior College Transfer Students at Florida State University.
The Florida State University grade point averages (GPA’s) of a sample of 398 junior-college transfers were related to the following variables: junior-college GPA, number of technical courses taken at the junior college, Florida Twelfth-Grade Test (FTGT) aptitude score, FTGT English score, FTGT social-science score, FTGT natural-science score, FTGT mathematics score, FTGT total score, load at Florida State University, lower-division courses taken, and deficiencies in Florida State University general education requirements. The results indicated that of this set of variables, only the junior-college GPA and FTGT scores had practical magnitude in a general linear prediction equation.
