• ACT and General Cognitive Ability. (2008, background): “Composite ACT scores are generally better at predicting college GPA than is high school GPA, especially at high levels of ability (Noble & Sawyer, 2002).”
• High School GPAs and ACT Scores as Predictors of College Completion: Examining Assumptions About Consistency Across High Schools (2020, methodology): “…ACT validitation studies tend to be based on improvement in the prediction of college freshman GPAs when test scores are used together with student-reported HSGPAs relative to models that use student-reported HSGPAs alone (e.g., Kobrin et al., 2008; Noble & Sawyer, 2002; Woodruff & Ziomek, 2004).”
