At grade level MAP 99th percentile is really easy.  It is based nation wide sample.  This area is known to have many high achievers

I got my DC MAP-M score from 3rd Grade (fall) of 244 to 5th Grade of 295  --- not gifted at all  [/quote]

I don't think you can take MAP out of grade level, but maybe I am misunderstanding.  Are you talking about comparing the RIT score with RIT scores in higher grade levels?

295 is extremely high for for fifth grade. What makes you say 'not gifted?'[/quote]

MAP has limit on grade at all.  More high level math exposure can lead very high MAP-M score.  It is computer interactive system, a 5th grade may face high school math problem generated from the system.  It is like a scale to measure a child's height and weight.  "not gifted" simply means my DC was not selected into CES.  [/quote]

I meant has[b] no limit on grade [/b][/quote]

I don't believe it's true! According to my DC's teacher, MAP-M ceiling for elementary school is 5th grade, so your 5th grader is not supposed to encounter questions on algebra, regardless on how well they do in the test.

And, come to think of it, it makes sense. [/quote]
