[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm now living outside of the DMV, so maybe no one cares, but my kids scored in the 99% on cogat but were denied admission to the gifted program due to iReady scores.  [b]Ironically, my kid's iReady scores were higher at the beginning of the year than at the end of the year in one subject that year.[/b]  Shall we conclude that a year of school made DC dumber?  In the fall, DC tested in the 95% + in both reading and math after a summer of doing a little AoPS and reading.   The whole system is broken, IMO. We kept up with AoPS and DC tested into Algebra in 6th grade without having ever gotten gifted services at school.  [/quote]

This regularly happens to my kids (yes, plural). This year one of my kid's entire classes got in trouble because too many of the class did worse on the winter language arts iReady than the fall.[/quote]

It regularly happens to mine as well.  I'm the PP.  My kids likely inherited a mild case of ADHD from me (see above for terrible grammar when rushing).  Whether they will focus and try on an iReady test on any given day is a gamble.  The only conclusion I can draw with certainty is that iReady is not an accurate measure of their aptitude in any subject.  [/quote]
