[quote=Anonymous]To the two past posters suggesting something nefarious: Try not to overstate the situation. The OP spoke of one going from 201 to 234 and another from 211 to 238. That's 55th percentile to 95th and 79th to 98th. It "seemed" that the whole class had big jumps. Another poster thought that something around 230 wouldn't be unusual for kids in compacted 4/5 for winter. Maybe the whole class is full of capable students who were taught better this year vs. last. It's not as though MAP is a test of ability such that exposure wouldn't change it much. The opposite is the case. Or maybe it could be something fishy, like a teacher giving out answers or admin finding some way to alter scores on the back end, but starting that with the 240s hyperbole doesn't help that suggestion gain traction. Between the two, Occam's razor and all...[/quote]
