It was the main goal of this investigation to determine if standardized tests could predict success in the fourth year high school in St. Paul Paranaque. The writer feels strtongly the importanc of the present study because the standardized tests used are foreign tests and expensive ones. Since the norms used are American norms some adaptations might be necessary.The result of the study could be used for establishing local norms pertinent not only for St. Paul Paranaque but also for the other schools in the area. Information found in this study could serve as basis for future decisions in the school's admissions policy.
