[quote=Anonymous][quote]and a little test prep can easily result in a few more question correctly, which could mean the difference between 120 and and 140 on the CogAT. [/quote] Right. And the questions are read orally and only once; the teacher cannot repeat the questions. If your kid spaces out for a few seconds (not hard to imagine when a 7-yr old boy is being made to sit through a test), there goes any chance of answering that question correctly. Just a few questions can make a big difference in the score. In a way, they are testing test-taking ability. That's why I think the individually-administered IQ tests are more useful than group ability tests, but of course it's not feasible for schools to test each child individually. [/quote]
