That seems like a lot of pressure to put on kids who know what the scores mean.


+1. Last year, my kid's school gave written letters to the kids. They all opened the letters and compared scores before the school day had ended.


Same. The schools should be ashamed for handling like this. These should be mailed out.


These are 11-12 year olds, right? I kind of feel like they can handle this. This is all a part of getting them ready for life. A little bit of competition, disappointment, etc is healthy, right?

Why would the kids know they need 91 percent? That’s wasn’t discussed at our school.

Ugh, my kid with all 4s who said the test was easy for 69%.

I wondering they wil have fewer kids passing due to shitty virtual school. It’s nationwide right? So they are being compared against kids who attended real school.

My kid wants to take algebra in 7th. We told him ok well you have to get a certain score on the IATT. I wouldn’t personally keep the criteria from my kid at this age.

I seriously don’t care whether my kid takes Algebra in 7th or 8th. 8th will be ok!!

Would be nice if they made public what % score 91 percentile this year vs other years.

Our school mailed the letters. In the letter, it specifically said students must score at least a 91% on the IAAT and a 500 on the Math SOL to qualify for Algebra I next year. My kid knew about the 91% well ahead of the test, though because a bunch of his classmates were talking about it online.

They will bury that info so far below ground. You know it's got to be terrible.

None of my dd's friends passed (6th grade AAP center). Scores ranged from 50s to 80s. Lots of low scores.

I can't help with %, but to you give you some idea - my DD took the IAAT last year. She missed 4 and still got a 98%. You can contact your school and ask them for the actual test report and they should be able to get it to you from The Office of Student Testing.

The kids who passed at our center were the ones who have been consistently strong at math and easily passed advanced on the math SOL in previous years.

Maybe some centers did a better job getting through all the material.

None of the kids I have checked with in class with my dd passed.

What percentage of AAP kids usually get 91 or higher?
