[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What tests are you talking about OP? I don't remember one placement test but it's been a few years. [/quote] IIRC they use SOL and Math Inventory scores plus 5th grade math teacher recommendation. [/quote] This. I have a 6th grader in pre-algebra this year. Mainly based on the test scores, at least coming out of our elementary.[/quote] I don't think it is necessarily mainly based on test scores. It is a mix of test scores and teacher input. My 2E kiddo occasionally bombs tests. One of those test scores in 5th was weirdly low but kid still got recommended for pre-algebra which is how I know it is actually a holistic look, and not just based on test scores. [/quote]
