If that's so why didn't he get in? It also amazes me since it's the top %1. So what would they need more? |

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the logic behind having a kid take the Stanford Binet and WISC in such a short timeframe. Why isn't one sufficient? [/quote]
Since he had no other scores (the ones the school gives due to recent move to the county) so when WISC of 147 got rejected I was advised to take SB to cover for the missing school based tests. [/quote] What was the score breakdown on the WISC? Is there a notably different subscore? [/quote] VCI 142 PRI 145 WMI 138 PSI 128 FSIQ 147 SB is 132 with all sub scores in 130 range.[/quote] Don't understand how can FSIQ be higher than all the individual subscore?! I thought FSIQ is a weighted average of the subscores. |

You have to know what you are doing that's why is administered by licensed individuals. |

I would say it should be good. But I have seen a post here with WISC 147 found not eligible so god knows! |

For example, it's unusual to have a VCI as high as 142 or a PRI as high as 145, but it's even more unusual to have both of these at their given level, so they would contribute to a FSIQ higher than either one, is my understanding. |

This is for parents looking at appeal success rates. The list is from last year |

Third Grade and appealing for AAP (Didn't do last year as we were not aware of the process and didn't even request for Cogat this year.Our ignorance) SB:140 GBRS: 13 What are the chances for getting in. NNAT was not very good but would they look at NNAT/COGAT from last year or will GBRS/SB suffice. Thanks |

I saw many folks asking about their chances. Some good Samaritan from last yr compiled this list.
the ones w/ "In" posted back on this forum for future AAP parents. The others I guess did not respond...? |

| I had posted asking if high WISC more closely correlated to NNAT or Cogat scores.. per this list, it clearly is the NNAT score. |

I replied in your thread with my child's scores. I think there are certain students who do not test well on the CogAT the way it is administered. I didn't realize until after my child took it that they read the test to the child. Some (maybe not all?) teachers pause for long periods of time while they wait for all kids to answer. Some kids zone out during this process and miss the next question. Some teachers repeat and some don't. Many kids on the don't understand how to properly score their test paper. In retrospect, it was no surprise to me that my kid did FAR better on the NNAT than CogAT. This was back when they did both in second grade. |
