[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know, perhaps the purpose of this new test is to put the scoring on a more realistic standard. Since this test is only being administered to Fairfax County, the entire score pool is students from this district. So falling in the 99% or 98% percent range will mean that you place at that range against our grading pool, NOT all the kids across the country. This will make it easier for the district to pull out the top 2-3% ish of 2nd graders for our program, instead of the large numbers we had this past school year. Just a thought.[/quote] No. Its easier and cheaper to just rescale the raw score, if they wanted a different scaled score for FCPS, instead of implementing an entirely new test. Anyway, its easy enough to pull out the top 2-3% based on the current scores. [/quote]
