[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4th grader is in math 4/5 this year. Last spring i was searching this board and posting here to figure out what criteria are used to qualify for math 4/5. I was unable to figure that out. However, my DC took the fall MAP-M a few days ago and there is a wide range of kids in the class.
Yes there are top performers who scored around 246-250 but then there are kids who scored 209 too. So I am here to tell you all that the criteria might be school dependent but its safe to say that a kid testing in 70-75th percentile qualified to take math 4/5. Hopefully this information will help someone.[/quote]

At our school it is tighter than that. Have to be at least 95th percentile. [/quote]

Are you guessing or you know for sure?[/quote]

I'm sorry I was rereading and realized that was a typo - it was 85th percentile, not 95th. Need to wear my reading glasses on my phone. I was trying to say that even though those what they told us, they might still pull in some lower-scoring kids if they needed to fill out the class. So the reality might be that they pull in a couple of kids who wouldn't normally make it at the 80th percentile just becuase they have the room. But for middle school, kids who didn't perform solidly in compacted are doing 6+ rather than AIM.[/quote]
