[quote=Anonymous]Scores are probably more variable at younger grades, but by second grade at least for our kids they had settled into predictable bands. 240 is a 99.99 percentile score in second grade, so I think the odds that your friend's kid is exceptional at math are pretty high. Your kid is also probably very good (and might end up exceptional) at math; 98th percentile is a very good score as well. Your friends kid will probably be better at math than your kid. Whether that "matters" is a more philosophical exercise. Most kids have strengths and weaknesses and some kids have exceptional strengths. Raising your kid with their abilities is what matters (and in your kid's case they ARE good at math).[/quote]
