[quote=Anonymous]I think Yes. There is a reason the month and year of birth is on the letter. Regardless, I don't think age makes a difference. If kids are a little older it doesn't automatically mean they are going to do better. It's funny how people want to brag about how their 3 year old is reading Harry Potter but then jump in with the "It's not FAIR" banter when it's convenient for them. If your kid is gifted it will show in more ways that one and in more ways than just the CogAt. If your child is prepped, again it should not matter because they should do well if they are smart AND prepped. It makes a lot more sense to take the top 5% of the all the second graders as they are ALL vying for the coveted 3rd grade AAP placements and if your child is not in the top 5% Cogat + low NNAT scores + low GBRS scores than maybe your just wishing a bit too much for that age based scoring to make a difference.[/quote]
