[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some years, my DC starts off with a really high score in the fall, which then dips in the winter and slightly rebounds in the spring. Other years, he begins with a score about 10 points lower in the fall, shows no change in the winter, and then improves significantly in the spring. His friends’ scores also fluctuate unpredictably. This kind of inconsistency shows why this test should never have been used for magnet school lotteries.[/quote] Not really. It shows that your kid isn’t a good candidate for the magnets. The magnet programs are tough and consistency is important. There’s room for some fluctuation but not if it means going below 99th.[/quote]
