[quote=Anonymous]First, MAP is a dynamic test, so it favors kids who push and use creative logic to answer questions they aren’t familiar with. If you skip or answer new questions incorrectly, your score will not advance. Both of my kids score in the 99th percentile on the MAP M, so they are regularly getting questions on math concepts way ahead of their classmates within the first few questions each time. One kid is energized by this and went out of her way to learn advanced math on her own using workbooks and games supplied by her teachers. She wanted to push herself and she did. This kid is motivated and a very hard worker. The other kid is just really, really intelligent in ways I don’t fully comprehend. Does not get extra work or enrichment outside of school, but her brain just sees math and logic in a different way, so she’s able to work through questions on concepts she is unfamiliar with. This kid is just gifted. [/quote]
