[quote=Anonymous]Part of people's reaction to "my 6 year old can do 6th grade level work!" is that it's so rarely true. My 4th grader just had a neuropsych evaluation because of learning disabilities, which included achievement testing. It came back that her reading comprehension score is the equivalent of grade 12.9 and math problem solving also 12.9. Does that mean that she can do 12th grade math or read and understand at the level of a 12 grader? Of course not! But people like to grab onto whatever seemingly objective data they can, even when it's a gross misuse of that data.[/quote]
