Abstract
Finally, in Illinois, mathematics and science academic resources were significant predictors of the odds of being college-ready in mathematics, whereas gender, GPA9, and mathematics academic resources were significant predictors of the odds of being college-ready in mathematics in Texas. In Illinois, GPA9 and foreign language academic resources were significant predictors of the odds of being college-ready in English. In contrast, race/ethnicity and English academic resources were significant predictors in Texas. This study concluded with recommendations to increase academic resources of Tech Prep participants to better prepare for a college education.
