The objective of this research was to develop 3 parallel tests and establish the norms for interpreting the scores from Thai language ability test of student teachers in public universities. The sample group in this study consisted of 1,110 fourth-year student teachers in public universities in the academic year of 2018. They were selected by multi-stage sampling. The results of the research found that the 3 parallel tests, each one consisted of 20 items were of high quality in terms of content validity. Each item had IOC of 1.00. The difficulty level of the first, the second, and the third test were 0.68, 0.67, and 0.67, respectively. The means of discrimination were 0.64, 0.65, and 0.64, and the reliability of the tests were 0.88, 0.89, and 0.88, respectively. The correlation coefficient between Test 1 and Test 2, Test 1 and Test 3, and Test 2 and Test 3 were 0.88, 0.89 and 0.88, respectively. This showed that the 3 tests were parallel to one another. The norm was shown in the form of normal scores ranging from 26 to 69.
