[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of people are comparing CogAT scores in detail, but only mentioning PARCC scores in passing (saying their child got 5s). My child isn’t an outlier on CogAT, but is an outlier on PARCC (over 840 out of a possible 850 on both sections and got an 849 ELA first time taking the test; scored far higher on the reading portion than the MCPS average). My point is that not all kids who got 5s on PARCC actually scored the same. If we take MCPS’s word that they don’t give more weight to any one data point than any other, this may explain how my child was recommended for the program at MLK without having the highest CogAT scores (although child was 99% nationally and 93% compared to MCPS on verbal reasoning). It’s just a theory; I’ll never really know why my kid was offered a magnet seat.[/quote] 840/850 PARCC is not that impressive. Many kids score perfect on those tests. [/quote]
