[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And before anyone posts that you cannot prep for these tests, I can tell you that colleges have gone through the same problems with inflated GRE scores from China. Apparently, they figured out a way to beat the verbal part of the test (!!!), getting sky-high scores, only to come to this country and have problems articulating simple sentences... [/quote]

I think what you are referring to was a cheating scheme, not prepping.
The cheaters were pooling questions and answers and sharing them with the group so they could memorize the answers.

Are you saying the NNAT and COGAT preppers are cheaters?  
Maybe the last group of 1st graders came out and told their parents the questions asked, which are then distributed amongst this ethnic group for higher scores next year!   Except that people here claim that we just switched to a different COGAT form...  wait, this conspriacy must go even further... to the class who previously took the Form 7 tests, but of the same ethnic origin.

Apparently, they figured out a way to beat the NNAT and Cogat (!!!)

Frighteningly, it's not just a conspiracy theory. A few weeks ago I was speaking with a former teacher. She told me about how at her school they actually had several kids who had been to a prep "program" where they memorized the Cogat answers in the correct order. This was brought to light when one child continued on further in the answer book than the questions he had been given. There were several children at the school who admitted they had been taught the answers by Mrs. ______.
