Water use conservation and efficiency From the beginning PISA has been designed with one particular method of data analysis in mind Since students work on different test booklets raw scores must be 'scaled' to allow meaningful comparisons Scores are thus scaled so that the OECD average in each domain (mathematics reading and science) is 500 and the standard deviation is 100. This is true only for the initial PISA cycle when the scale was first introduced though subsequent cycles are linked to the previous cycles through IRT scale linking methods.
