[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feeling glum about sophomore DD scores-1160. GPA 3.89 UW at competitive private. I’d much rather the high GPA but still can’t help being disappointed. Just not a good test taker.[/quote] No. That’s the 89th percentile. Its top score is 1520, not 1600. The child is not a bad test taker.[/quote] My child was in the same percentile for a 10th grader: 1170, 89th percentile. I don't think that is a good score. It's not horrible, but it certainly doesn't mean the kid is a good test taker.[/quote] You heard it on DCUM first. 89th percentile is not horrible but not “good.” This is why all our children have anxiety disorders.[/quote] Do you think an 1170 on the Psat indicates the kid is a good test taker? What would you think if someone posted that her kid got an 1170 and is clearly a good test taker?[/quote] I would say that 89th percentile is “good,” yes.[/quote]
