[quote=Anonymous]Standardized tests. Private schools use them to assess the strengths and weaknesses of their curriculum. You'll get a breakdown that shows you your DC's scores, the scores of everyone in DC's grade at the school, and then medians for national, private school, and suburban public school (IIRC) students. It's worth noting that there's a breakdown by subsections and you see not only percentile and stanine data for cohorts, but also the absolute numbers (e.g. DC correctly answered 6 of 8 questions asked on this subtopic). Note that in some cases the subtests have so few questions and scores in some cohorts are so high that even a perfect score won't put a kid in the 90th+ percentile of a private school cohort.
