[quote=Anonymous]Schools have different cutoffs. My kid had higher scores and was moved from Pre-Algebra where she was placed a few weeks ago to Math 6 Advanced (thankfully). Some of her friends going to a different middle school had lower scores and were placed in Pre-Algebra. Definitely depends on the school. You can't offer Pre-Algebra if very few of your students score at or above the decision rules so you have to lower the cutoff. I work at a title 1 school in FCPS and we had to mov kids who scored a 401 in 5th grade into Math 7HN (which is our version of Pre Alg for 6th graders) because otherwise we wouldn't have any kids in the class that the state is requiring us to offer.[/quote]
