[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Again, the creators of tests say they can't meaningfully distinguish within the SEM, usually at least the top 2 percent.[/quote]

Well that's fine as long as they are only taking kids that score 98% and up. They are now inviting kids that score in the 80s and rejecting kids with 99%. [/quote]

Where are you getting that information from?[/quote]

Wow. For entry into the CES: "Roughly less than half (41.7%) were in the 80th to the 94th percentile on the MAP-M".  For the Cogat 34% were in this range.  When my kid got into the HGC several years back her scores were in the 130+ on everything (98th, 99th percentile) and 99th percentile on MAP-M/R and she was just barely above average for the center based on the scores of admitted students they provided.  The people who were saying that this new system led to more qualified students were clearly wrong.[/quote]

There are posts on this board several years ago that state the exact same thing went on with the old system. You’re only seeing these things because you want to. There is no evidence [/quote]
