[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Over 700 kids had qualifying cogat composite scores. That’s what happens when you test thousands of kids. This is a good thing. [/quote] What is considered a "qualifying cogat composite score," and is that a MCPS percentile or a national one? If the MS magnets are either for humanities or math, then why are they looking at composite score rather than the just the verbal for Eastern and just the quantitative (and nonverbal too?) for Takoma?[/quote] Why does it matter? Are you thinking MCPS’s threshold is too low? Well, that’s their prerogative. They are identifying 700 kids using composite scores alone. That’s more than when only kids whose parents referred were tested. I used composite because there’s no overlap. There are at least 700 gifted 5th graders in MCPS. [/quote]
