[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s absolutely bonkers that people have their kids prep for this test. My kid is very bright but doesn’t do well on things like this. DD Recommended for gifted but doesn’t score well on this test so not eligible. Doesn’t really matter so much to me because I know the teachers always make sure they are challenged. But for kids Who have never seen logic problems like this to be scored against kids who are prepped, seems a little inequitable. Of course you’re going to have truly gifted students who will do wonderful no matter what. But studying your kid into the gifted program bonkers. [/quote]

We had given these CoGat/OLSAT-like questions in the past to get DC to do some mind puzzles - we didn't know much about gifted services, just as challenges in her free time, and she found them fun.  Ironically, we got a letter from school a few days ago about DC being referred for gifted services (seeking our consent to proceed with screening), but her CoGat scores are just average. I don't think she'll be identified, but it's OK. We supplement on our own anyway.   [/quote]
