[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I think that might be true. My son was in pool for NNAT and had slightly above 60% on all parts of the FxAT. He had a good GBRS and was found ineligible.

I also believe the FxAT scores severely disadvantage kids that are younger - of course my son is a late September birthday. I would love to see if the age distribution changed this year.[/quote]
what is a good GBRS?
 those scores aren't close but you think if your DC was afew months older that would make a difference? could be, but that's  a lot of ground to make up.

These are kinds of posts made by trolls ... Just sayin. Of course not you.[/quote]

Absolutely not a troll. The FxAT was not age normed, nor was it against any national standard. It was meant to rank and stack knowledge of all the 2nd graders in FCPS. There are plenty of posts about that here. The WISC is normed and he did extremely well - in the very superior range.

The only way to tell if a late birthday was at disadvantage would be to correlate scores against birthdate.[/quote]

Ok PP good luck with the appeal![/quote]
