[quote=Anonymous]I recently spoke to a middle school counselor who told me they use MSA scores to determine placement (advanced vs. regular) for middle school courses. I too would like to know my child's percentile. DS is in the advanced range for MSA scores but so is half of ds's grade. The score does not seem that high to me (mid 500 range out of a possible max of 650) but ds MAP-R is off the charts (99th percentile for a 8th grader even though ds is in 5th grade- Lexile score of 1600) and he is taking Math 7 (Math B) in 5th grade. I am nervous that what to me looks like a relatively ordinary MSA scores might determine course placement in middle school. Knowing percentiles might provide me more information if I wish to advocate for my child to receive more challenge.[/quote]
