[quote=Anonymous]When people say 5-6 grade levels ahead what do they mean and what are they basing that on. For instance, my kid’s EOY 2nd grade testing would put them at end of 4th grade placement-wise according to the iready table; however, it’s actually the 50th percentile+ for 6th graders EOY. Do people call that 2 grades ahead or 4 grades ahead? The former seems accurate anecdotally, the latter does not. Assuming the former is the definition, there is no world in which most UMC kids are 5-6 grade levels ahead per a PP. My kid has among the highest scores in her grade. There are 5 kids within a few points of each on iReady and 20 of each other on RI; there’s no one above that. I’m sure some grades have a superstar that ours lacks, but we’re at a good non-T1 school and there is no one who would qualify as 5-6 grade levels ahead, much less “most” UMC students.[/quote]
