[quote=Anonymous]Poster here with the kid with the 124 NNAT score. No, the average score does not have to be 130.  At least one subset of the CoGAt or the score on the NNAT has to be 130 (or whatever the threshold score is for that year - in the prior year it was 132, I believe) to be IN THE POOL.

My child did do lousy on one subset of the CoGat and got a perfect score (146) on another subset.  Apparently, that was enough to get him into the AAP program.  Again, I did not see his GBRS scores from the school or what the teachers wrote about him.  That may have helped as well.

To the poster who asked about the number of questions, I am looking at the report for the NNAT2 Level C now.  It says his raw score was 41 out of a number possible of 48.  That put him in the 93rd percentile rank.  According to their graph, that score falls in the "superior" category with "very superior" being 130 and above.

Huh?

So your average score doesn't need to be over 130?

Your son was below 130 on average for both tests, and had a 146 on just one of the 3 subsets, and was automatic?  If he had 146 on one subset, and his CogAT at 129, that means for his other two subsets, at least one was way below 129.

You said he got a 124 on the NNAT where the threshold was 130. No?[/quote][/quote]
