[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congratulations PP. I'm surprised an appeal was necessary with a maxed-out NNAT of 160 (even with the lowish GBRS). I think there must be something to the "urban legend" that the NNAT doesn't count as much as the CogAT. FYI, we also used Dr. Dahlgren for the evaluation and were very pleased with her professionalism, experience with the Fairfax GT system, and her ability to tease out our child's strengths and weaknesses. Many warm wishes to all the folks on this board and a big thank-you for the information that you have shared about your children.[/quote] It's funny, I have heard this comment about the NNAT scores being not reliable, but the Cogat has been shown to have too much of an achievement component to it - needs previous knowledge, language skills. I don't think any one test is perfect, but psychologists do run reliability tests on these measurements and the NNAT is quite good across ethnicities and gender.[/quote]
