The performance of Hawaii's students on the College Entrance Examination Board's Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) was assessed in the course of a reanalysis of data presented in a 1985 article by E. B. Page and H. Feifs. Separate analyses were conducted on the verbal and math scores used as criterion variables. The predictor variables included the proportion of high school graduates taking the SAT, the proportion of all students who are not Black or Hispanic, student-teacher ratio, teacher salary, per-student expenditure, the proportion of state per-capita income spent on education, average income, and employment rate. Results indicate that, given its resources, Hawaii is the least successful of all the states in preparing its students, regardless of whether they attend private or public school, for higher education. This unfortunate finding is almost wholly can be attributed to student performance on the verbal portion of the SAT; Hawaii's students perform well in relation to other students in the United States on the math portion of the SAT.
