[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The NNAT, or Naglieri Nonverbal [u]Ability[/u] Test, is just that: a test of the child's[u] ability[/u]. Many children can learn how to answer the questions when taught how, but the idea of the test is to see how quickly a child can grasp a concept he or she has never seen before. When a child practices taking the test ahead of time, the result is no longer a true measure of the child's ability. [/quote] You are absolutely correct. And the central screening committee is very much aware of test prepping of 1st and 2nd graders. Thankfully students are not found Center-eligible simply due to test scores. If the work samples and/or the GBRS do not mesh with what some might consider artificially inflated test scores, the central screening committee takes that into consideration.[/quote]
