[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was 99th percentile in all areas but had like no growth. Because there is nowhere to grow I guess? I dunno. Makes no sense. [/quote] The prediction is always super low for a kid who scores at the high-end. The one that measures growth though is based on the delta in the YoY score in the fall.[/quote] That's actually not true -- my kid was 99 percentile and high growth. I had thought that was the case because my first son who was high percentile low growth. But then my other kid got his scores back and I found out otherwise. If it's true that growth score is based on the difference, ie, delta, between year over year score, then this should make sense to you.[/quote] DC is usually about 30 points above the 99% and their prediction is always super low like 8 points. They mostly beat it and usually go up 15-20 points. A few times it's been more like 25.[/quote]
