Abstract: The 1998 High School Transcript Study (HSTS) provides the U.S. Department of Education and other policymakers about current course offerings and students' course taking patterns. In 1998 the nationally representative sample for the HSTS included 25,422 students graduating in 1994 from 264 high schools. Approximately 94% of the sampled students came from schools that participated in the National Assessment of Educational Progress and retained student identification information. Various restrictions reduced the sample to 24,218 students. Chapters 1, 2, and 3 of the report contain: (1) highlights of the HSTS results; (2) descriptions of the current and previous studies; (3) an introduction to the tables; (4) a discussion of the subject area taxonomy; (5) a discussion of the comparability of the samples in the five studies; and (6) directions for testing the significance of differences reported in the tables. Data tables for the 1998 HSTS are presented in Appendix A. Appendix B contains a listing of the categories used as row labels in the tables and the codes associated with each category. (Contains 7 tables and 4 figures in addition to the 121 tables of Appendix A.) (SLD)
