[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About time. [b]Age norm the MAP scores while you are at it.[/b] [/quote] MAP scores have always been age-normed. This is why from a point of view of testing, red-shirted kids don't necessarily have an academic advantage. [/quote] No MAP is not age-normed. Not for MCPS anyway. If you look at the cogat test reports it shows the percentile of your child considering the scores for children of X number of years and months. For MAP testing, it just shows your child as benchmarked against the district and grade level means. [/quote] +1 This annoyed me. My kid is one of the youngest in their class, and CES slots are assigned solely based on MAP scores, and not COGAT scores which control for age.[/quote]
