Highly Gifted Program: What's the test?

Anonymous
Now that we've learned when the 3rd graders will be taking their test, does anyone have any information about it? From the letter I got yesterday, I know that it's a 2-hour test. Does anyone know the name of the test?

I believe it is the CoGat.

I don't know the name of the test, but it consists of verbal, math and a logic sections.

Is it like the SCAT test from CTY?

OP, here. Thanks for your help.

Five years ago, when we were doing it, they used the CoGat for the second grade screening, and the SCAT for the third grade test. Same test as CTY, but a different level (one used upper elementary, the other middle, don't remember which was which). They also had the kids do a written essay.

I don't think that's the case anymore. Now it's Raven/Inview for second grade screening and CoGat -- I think -- for third grade.

It is the Raven and Inview now and they're given in 2nd grade. 3rd graders may be rescreened if they were borderline.

All 3rd graders who apply to a center are rescreened (with a different test)

The third grade center test is the CoGat.

All second graders are screened with Raven and InView.

Is Imview the same as Terra Nova?

No Terra Nova is also given to 2nd graders..it is more like a general achievement test that schools use to predict the 3rd grade MSA results.
