Abstract
Graduate programs in Educational Administration use a variety of screening strategies, including the Graduate Records Examination, when selecting and admitting students. In order to earn Standard Principal Certification in Texas, an Educational Administration candidate must also pass the Standard Principal TExES. This study examined the correlation between an Educational Administration student’s GRE score as a predictor of that students TExES score. Data demonstrate a correlation between the Graduate Records Examination and the Standard Principal TeXES. Having identified this correlation the study also derived a linear equation for predicting Standard Principal TExES score using GRE scores.
