[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does the 1st grade MAP test compare to the later tests?  E.g., if my child got 215 in first, is the third grade test the same?  Obviously I'm not a candidate for compacted math....[/quote]
Pretty sure it's the same.  If your kid is at 215 in first they're off the charts.[/quote]

Not exactly. It's most common for kids with high scores in 1st and 2nd to drop when they get to 3rd. This is because the test shifts from Map-M to Map-P, which has some notable differences.

My child was getting 230s in 1st and dropped about 20 points at the start of 3rd. He's now back on the same trajectory and I was told by multiple people this is expected. I wish they told us preemptively though, because
 initially I was concerned. [/quote]

I'm 10:06 and this is what I heard as well. It doesn't mean everyone has a huge drop - some have less of a drop, others stagnate, others may increase their score but not by as much as their parents expected. There's just a little adjustment kids have to make and then they're fine.[/quote]

That’s interesting. My son was the opposite. He was stalled at 218-220 for all of 1st and 2nd grade, and after doing 220 again in fall 3rd grade, got a 227 and 236 in winter and spring. [/quote]
