[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The oral accuracy national average seemed strangely high to me in relation to the others, or at least my dd’s score on that one in particular seemed strangely low. She was in the blue zone for every section except that one, and even though she was above goal she was only at 30th percentile nationally. Maybe it has something to do with the way the test was administered in APS this year- easier to screw up.[/quote]

OP here. The above is my exact experience and you make a great point. My daughter was in blue on all the other ones too, though some of the national comparisons even there seemed oddly high compared to other tests I’ve seen (and experiences in general). But with oral accuracy specifically, my daughter scored at 97 percent accuracy, which was 30 percentile nationally. It’s possible that 98 percent accuracy takes you up substantially on a percentile basis. But it’s still hard for me to believe that 70 percent of national 5th grade readers read at higher than 97 percent accuracy. [/quote]

Yeah, I mentioned about. My kid score at 99 percent accuracy and was only at 79% (he is in 3rd). Who  knows. [/quote]
