7. What is the rationale of DepEd in administering the NAT in Grade Three, Grade Six and Fourth Year?
The NAT is a system-based assessment specifically designed to gauge learning outcomes across target levels in identified periods of basic education. NAT-Grade Three - Pursuant to Every Child a Reader Program (ECARP), it serves as midassessment of elementary education. NAT-Grade Six - It serves as terminal exit assessment of elementary education and as measurement of incoming first year students readiness for high school (pursuant to DepED Order No. 5, s. 2005). NAT-Fourth Year - It serves as exit assessment of the secondary level of basic education (pursuant to DepED Order No. 5, s. 2005).

8. What information is derived from the NAT Certificate of Rating (NAT-COR)? Raw scores obtained by an examinee five subjects are reported in a table alongside with the percentage scores.
Total test scores for raw and percentage scores are revealed at the bottom part of the table. A quartile distribution of the obtained of mean percentage scores is provided to guide end-users in interpreting test results.
10
Percentage of Correct Responses (PCR) per learning competency by subject area is likewise presented to have a glimpse on the performance of the pupil/student in every skill measured in the test.

9. How are the NAT scores reported and interpreted to each examinee?
15
The NAT results are interpreted in quartile distribution of Mean Percentage Scores (MPS) to indicate the percentage of correctly answered items in a test or subject area proficiencies. It is also used in classifying test performances of schools, divisions, regions and the total country. For example: Performance of School X School X has overall Mean Percentage Score (MPS) of 52%. It is classified as upper average in school performance. School X has MPS of 80% in English. It has superior performance in English.
Quartile Distribution 76-100% 51-75% 26-50% 15 0-25% Descriptive Equivalent Superior Upper Average Lower Average Poor
16
For instance, a 50 MPS in one subject area would mean that an examinee correctly answered 20 out of 40 test items (NAT-Grade 6).
On the other hand, a 60 MPS for a total score means that an examinee correctly answered 6 out of 10 questions in the test.

It uses the MPS to indicate the percentage of correctly answered items in a test.
The computation of grades in school, however, is done very differently from the NAT. (Refer to DepED Order No. 73, s. 2012, Guidelines on the Assessment and Rating of Learning Outcomes under the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum; www.deped.gov.ph)

12. Does an MPS below 75 mean that the examinees failed the test?
No. An MPS below 75 would mean that the examinees test performance does not belong to the upper average of the total number of test-takers.
19
The standard criterion set by the Department in terms of achievement level is 75% which is the national target.
