[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid did MAP 5 last year in 4th grade in compacted math. There was a dip in her fall score but then it went way up in the spring. Same thing this fall with MAP 6.[/quote] Yeah, I wish they wouldn’t base criteria programs on fall scores![/quote] It took a year from when they first instituted having the higher-level MAP test used throughout the year for those taking Math 5/6, but MCPS now understands that there is higher individual variation when moving MAP levels from the prior test, even as the progression of the mean stays relatively consistent across large numbers of test takers taking that new version. They accommodated by using, for those taking Math 5/6, the higher locally normed MAP-M percentile of 4th grade spring and 5th grade fall when considering placement in the Math/Science/CS criteria-based magnet lottery.[/quote]
