[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think there is a correlation in the statistical sense. Yes, I would expect many bright kids to do “well” on both. Loosely. But I wouldn’t assume a kid who gets a 99 on map to get a 99 on CoGAT. There is no literature out there that gives a correlation between the two tests. Either it hasn’t been studied or there isn’t a strong correlation at all. The makers of MAP do not comment on a correlation. [/quote] This. They measure two completely different things (aptitude and achievement) but obviously bright kids with a high Cogat often tend to be high achievers with high MAP scores. But, no, you can't assume your child who does well on the MAP would also do well on Cogat or that your child with a high Cogat will have a high MAP. MCPS this year was looking for kids with high aptitude and high achievement and high effort (grades are a decent proxy in elementary) for admission to the CES [/quote]
