The nonintellectual predictors of college grades were studied by means of the EPPS, the 16 PF, the IPIT, a multiple-choice variation of the TAT, the Page Fantasy Scale, the Taylor MAS, and the Sarason TAQ. For 76 male and female college freshmen and sophomores measures of high school grade point average and EPPS n-Ach were significant predictors of college grades but measures of scholastic aptitude and anxiety were not. It was implied that high school achievement is a superior criterion for predicting college success. Adequate measures of nonintellectual variables which may contribute to that prediction are lacking
