[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Humblebrag *cough* humblebrag. This really belongs in the AAP forum. I am sure you are bright enough to know exacly what the scores mean. 99th percentile is a concept that is pretty clear. At least you did this on an anonymous forumn and didn't go up to a group of parents and say "I have no idea what this means. My kid got a near perfect score on the NNAT and a very high percentile. I am sooooo confused?!![/quote]

I got a letter from Fairfax County Public School with my first grader's NNAT3 scores, with a graph and at the [b]99th percentile[/b]. So what I understand so far is that 99 percentile is based on kids that took the test nationally. So given that this DMV area has highly educated and intelligent parents with similar offspring, I would guess a lot of the students in the FCPS system will also have placed at over, say 95 percentile. So that doesn't help me understand the full picture of how she is in this area.

So with these scores, around where is she at in FCPS? Or in ACPS? Is it kind of being in the top maybe 10-30 percent of your school for your grade (let's say she's at one of those schools where kids test high, with a great school rating of 9). Since she is in FCPS, does that mean that she has a high chance of getting in AAP if her [b]Cogat thing[/b] (I frankly only know the term, [b]not what it is[/b]) is similarly high?

Raw score was 42 out of 48, scaled score 1665, NCE 99, Stanine 9, Nagliery Ability Index 138. If it matters, she was 6 years and 10 months when tested (she has a Jan birthday so she is on the older side among her classmates).

You clearly understand it despite your title and “aw shucks, doe eyed” attempt to sound like you have no idea what it means or the process.
