Developmental Scale Score?* What’s a Developmental Scale Score?* A developmental scale score ranges from 0 to 3000 for Reading and Mathematics tests. The developmental scale score is based on previous performance of a student and indicates the progress made by a student over years. The developmental scale score is not reported for Science test since it is administered in limited grades. A scale score (or Sunshine State score) that ranges from 100 to 500 is reported for Science, Mathematics and Reading tests. For the Writing test, the score is reported on a scale of 0 to 6, where 0 is for an ‘unscorable’ essay.
