- UW Unmatched Test Scores describes the screens used to search to find and match test scores on SDB, the Student Data Base. This may seem like adviser information rather than administrative information but many international teaching assistants must show a minimum TOEFL or TSE speaking score to teach, so one needs their scores. The scores may not show under their records on SDB if the Educational Testing Service report spells or configures their names differently. The SRF536 screen allows searching for lost scores by name or SSN. Advisers may not know about the SRF536 screen, which doesn't show up on the usual list of screens they see. On SRF536 enter "N" for "next" under action to scroll through names. Once the scores are found, someone with SRF535 screen access must match the score to the person in SDB so that it shows up on MyGradProgram and the SRF507 Applicant Test Scores Screen. The screens also work for other test scores, such as GRE or SAT. (added 3/27/07, url updated 6/9/16)
