I was unable to figure that out. However, my DC took the fall MAP-M a few days ago and there is a wide range of kids in the class.
Yes there are top performers who scored around 246-250 but then there are kids who scored 209 too. So I am here to tell you all that the criteria might be school dependent but its safe to say that a kid testing in 70-75th percentile qualified to take math 4/5. Hopefully this information will help someone.

How do you know the scores of the other kids in the class?

Because the kids share their scores. They ask other kids and the tell their scores to other kids in class.

+1 they pop up at the end of the test, and at this age they all immediately share them.

OK, not disagreeing with you but I told my 4th grader to not share his score with anyone and to also not believe any of the scores his classmates share with him because kids lie.

Kids can still look at his screen when he raises his hands. That’s what happened with my DC.

Keep one hand or a sheet of paper covering the screen.

Now I'm hearing that kids are telling other kids about yet other kids' scores. They may as well make an Instagram group for it.

At our school it is tighter than that. Have to be at least 95th percentile.

At ours it's 99% only but there's only one kid in the class.

+1 My DC said that's what happened in class today until the teacher told them to knock it off.
