[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, since the IAAT is a percentile score, it means only 9% of all FCPS kids will be eligible based on IAAT. Now, taking those 9%, not everyone will score a pass advanced on the SOL. This means less than 9% of all FCPS students will qualify for Algebra 1 honors in 7th grade (strictly on scores). Looking at the class sizes for algebra 1 in 7th grade, it appears to be more than 10% of FCPS kids who actually end up taking it. So it looks like the schools don't strictly follow the criteria.[/quote] THe IAAT is a percentile based on the national average, not Fairfax's average. Historically, historically students in Fairfax County do better than the national average, so more than 9% qualify.[/quote]
