[quote=Anonymous][quote=SAM2][quote=Anonymous]Question for the survey -- the question re: test scores, unless I glossed over it, asks for percentile, but not percentile within group -- for example the ranking nationally versus the ranking within the test taking group.  There's always a very wide gap there.  Can you illuminate what data you're looking for?[/quote]
I'm unfamiliar with admissions test scores that show two different groups.  My own children's scores showed only one full-scale percentile number (along with separate percentiles for subtests), but my experience is limited to their scores.  Are you thinking about ERB tests?  I believe those will show your child's place in different background groups.  In the end, I suspect the more useful percentile would be the national ranking.[/quote]

Seems everyone on this site always reports 99th percentile, no matter what group or subtest...
Difference in scores (percentiles) for SSAT national group compared to the SSAT taker's group is wide.  99th percentile national, 75th percentile ssat group only in my DS case on one subtest[/quote]
