[quote=Anonymous]Due to the nature of the test, kids who are good at math will get difficult questions which inevitably would take longer than an hour to complete. Limiting time is a grave mistake on MAP tests for MCPS. MAP results are indeed used for class grouping (whether you are aiming at the magnet or not). The test was not designed to have time limitation, and putting one on it nullifies that merits of the test. If MCPS deems the test as too time consuming, then they either should administer it only once a year, or alltogether find another test to measure achievement.[/quote]
