[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me understand this. So they will select kids for Takoma Math/Science program without using math in the assessment test?? [/quote] Yes, I spoke to the MCPS reps after the event and they confirmed that the test was changed to evaluate how a child thinks (reasoning ability) and also because MCPS is aware that there is test prepping going on and that is why MCPS is not providing sample questions/practice exam to level the playing field.[/quote] Well, if you provide sample questions to ALL the kids (send them home with the info packet), then would that not level the playing field? Instead, as it works, kids who can afford test prep can do so. [/quote] The test changed, but where does it say what is or isn't on it?[/quote]
