S ummary . GCE O‐ and A‐level examinations of boys from a public school were correlated with the AH6 AG test scores obtained a year earlier. The results suggest that the predictive value of AH6 for success in individual subjects is almost as high as when the examinations and testing were taken within a few weeks of each other. This is equally true for estimates of overall success in O‐ and A‐level examinations where highly significant correlations are found.
