[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are her MAP M scores? [/quote]

As a teacher, this should not be the only factor. Compacted math moves quickly. Kids who score high but take forever are not a good fit and get frustrated.

PP’s above are correct.[/quote]

What is the issue with taking a long time on the map test? Other than those tend to be the more cautious or anxious kids. [/quote]

I am not the teacher, but MAP test is not a timed tests. Nothing wrong with taking extra time. [/quote]

+1  And there's nothing wrong with being slower and methodical.  I have a kid with slow processing speed who takes a long time on tests, but is always at a 98%+.  He did well in compact math--it's not designed for Young Sheldons, it's designed to be faster than the regular MCPS math.[/quote]

Same here. A kid with slow processing speed and in IEP. Kid was scoring 99% in MAP for the last 4-5 years and finishing geometry in his 8th grade now. Compact math is not some very high difficulty level math. 4/5/6 the grade math is very over lapping so any kid who is good in math can do well in compact math.
