[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's actually a significantly lower correlation between the two assessments than I would have guessed -- only about 70 percent of those who passed based on the IAAT also made the SOL cutoff. So don't count your chickens yet. [/quote] I am only guessing, but I think that a higher score on the IAAT likely correlates with a higher score on the SOL. So those with scores at 91 or 92 may be less likely to score Pass Advanced on the SOL, vs. those with scores of 98 or 99 on the IAAT who may be more likely to score Pass Advanced.[/quote] My dc had a 95% on the IAAT, 570 on the SOL, and all A's in 6th grade AAP math, and is struggling to keep a B in Algebra. I wonder if it would be different if Algebra, as opposed to only Algebra Honors was an option. It is truly a HS level class. [b]Homework is not graded and does not count,[/b] there is a new topic every day, a quiz every day, and tests with very few questions so that missing even one really brings the grade down. Not showing the work exactly how the teacher wants it shown can take 50% off each question, regardless of a correct answer. In retrospect, i wish we had stuck with Math 7 honors. [/quote] This is not true. Homework has counted in every HS credit math class my children have taken all the way up to BC Calc- regardless if it was taken in MS or HS. From Precalc on, some teachers have homework count as an option, you get credit for what you have done but do not get dinged if you do not do it. [/quote]
