[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child scored in the 90's on the IAAT, he/she should have little difficulty with the SOL, even with the new standards. The IAAT is a power test.  Kids have to solve very complex problems in a short amount of time.  The SOL is an un-timed test with a variety of problems. The "high bar" is the IAAT. [/quote]

Thanks for posting this. DD scored high on the IAAT and I have no idea how that will translate to the 7th grade math SOL.[/quote]

Is it 8th grade SOL or 7th grade? Somehow I remember it was 8th grade SOL years ago[/quote]

7th grade.

Jeff Steele (not from DCUM but from FCAG) did a comparison of the use of the 7th grade vs. 8th grade math SOL scores and Algebra readiness.  He posted it to the FCAG group:

He concluded (as others here have concluded) that the 7th grade math SOL does not make much of a difference as those 6th graders that score 91+ on the IAAT are crossing a higher hurdle than with either the 7th or 8th grade math SOL.
