[quote=Anonymous]They basically give all the kids the same standardized test, then they recalculate everyone’s score based on the relative wealth of the student body. So if you go to a school with very few kids receiving free lunch, your scores generally need to be at or above the 97th percentile or so. They recalculate it every year and don’t publish it but will tell you if you call the AEI office and ask. Kids at high poverty schools can get into the lottery with much much lower scores (percentiles in the 60-70s), but even as low as those scores are, obviously 85 percent of students at those schools score even lower.
