Calvin College CS-MFT Results
Like most schools with an ABET-accredited CS program, we have our CS seniors take the Educational Testing Service‘s Computer Science Major Field Test (ETS CS-MFT) each year. This standardized test evaluates a student’s knowledge in three broad areas: computer programming, discrete structures, and systems. The maximum possible score on the test is 200 points.
The following table presents the maximum, minimum, and median actual scores for Calvin College CS seniors on the ETS CS-MFT since 2007:
