| Only parents whose kids scores high will post. The ones with Low score less than 132 will not post and then people will assume everyone scored so high đ |
| 160, we did prep, 5 30 minutes class with a private tutor, cost me $300. During the initial assessment by the teacher, child tested at 6th grade level for 2 of the sections. I would never say this to anyone in person. Yes, we are privileged. |
Are you a troll? Before taking tutoring lessons, your child scored at 6th grade level? Then why you needed tutoring or prepping? If you are privileged, you will be sending your child to private like Potomac or nysmith. |
I expect to see you back here posting in a year when your child doesnât get into AAP and railing about how the committee is rigged and asking how can your clearly âgiftedâ child with perfect scores could possibly not get in! The committee knows when the scores donât reflect the student. |
Not a troll. If I knew how to post a picture, I would without any PPI. I knew child was talented in math. When we signed up for the sessions, it was a prepaid package, I didnât know how she would do. Child has ADHD and is not open to me teaching her anything. That is why I hired a tutor. In truth, I did it for child to become familiar with the test. I had no idea that they would do so well. |
| 86 Is that good enough for the center? |
If your child scores 160 in NNAT, and similar scores in Cogat, it can backfire if the class teacher and AART wonât see the advanced thinking skills and doesnât get a equally great GBRS with comments. These scores are great, can indicate child is top 1% in FCPS. |
But now you will never know what your DC would have scored if they had taken the test properly. When posters brag about their DC's 136 or 148, you can't really compare. Because you don't know. Oh well. |
| Unfortunately, many kids in this area prep. Were in a high SES school and child reported after the test that many kids had seen those questions before (which to means there was some form of preparation at home). Teacher never went over the format or any single sample questions in class according to same child. |
You do know that most 6 year olds might not understand the nuance of a practice item versus an actual item on a computer, right? |
| The NNAT is the least accurate of these tests. DC is 99th percentile on WISC and Cogat and when they took the NNAT a few yrs ago, scored 126. Iâve had countless parents tell me NNAT scores were the outlier for their kids as well. FCPS probably still bothers to offer it just to get some data for the file on who is prepping. Iâm kidding - kind of. |
|
Agree with above. DC had matching 99th percentile scores on WISC and COGAT. NNAT was 89th.
Not pool but accepted to AAP. I wonder how much they care about NNAT, personally, especially since the consultants whose words they live by told them to ditch it. |
Haha, so true. |
Same here! I wouldnât have known it had I not seen this post. Thank, OP! |
