[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, Your child should basically have all As and 99th percentile on Cogat composite. I don't know how deeply they look at the subscores.

99% for grade, not age.  This is how the "redshirting" hurts the younger kids.[/quote]

No it's the opposite. Cogat is age-normed, so being younger is a plus. It's the older redshirted kids who are penalized.[/quote]

No - CogAT being age normed is fair to both younger and older kids by comparing them to others born in the same year and month.[/quote]

Yes, it is more fair, but younger kids in the same grade benefit from age-norming since their percentiles are effectively boosted. In other words, if a younger child and older child in the same grade get the same score, the younger child "wins." They are initially compared to their same-age peers but ultimately compared within the grade for CES admission and high performance by younger scorers is considered.[/quote]
