WIDA ACCESS for ELLs 2.0 scale scores are psychometrically derived measures of student proficiency.
Range from 100 to 600 (above 500 is rare).There is a separate scale for each language
domain: Listening;
Speaking;
Reading; and
Writing.

Proficiency Level Scores are socially-derivedinterpretations of the ACCESS for ELLs Scale Scores in terms of the six proficiency levels defined in the WIDA Standards.
Comprised of a whole number and a decimal, e.g. 2.5 The whole number indicates the proficiency level into which the
student’s scale score places him or her (e.g. 2 = Emerging)
The decimal indicates how far, in tenths, the student’s scale score places him or her between the lower and the higher cut score of the proficiency level (e.g. 2.5 = 5/10 or ½ of the way between the cut score for level 2 and level 3)
