[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This frustrates me so much. You guys don’t understand that a WISC is an IQ test and the CoGAT is an ability test. They measure different things and can therefore be vastly different. My son bombed the CoGAT but had a very high WISC.[/quote] Sure, but this forum also gives people a distorted idea that a high WISC is likely. Some kids get much higher WISC scores than their CogAT or NNAT, but a lot don't. If people strongly feel that their kid belongs in AAP, and that the CogAT and NNAT aren't accurate reflections of the kid's intelligence, then they should get the WISC done. They just shouldn't go into it expecting that the result will be useful for AAP appeals. [/quote] When you heavily prep your child for NNAT and CogAT and their scores are inflated, you might be disappointed at the WISC score which is a truer reflection of their level. [/quote]
