[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both of my kids pass advanced on reading SOL (4th, 7th). Interestingly, my 7th grader said their English teacher specifically said to pay close attention to the first passage and triple check answers because the test is adaptive and very difficult to pass advanced if you mess up at the start. I hadn’t heard that before and my kids have been taking SOLs for awhile now. [/quote] That is fcked up. [/quote] That is how computer adaptive testing works though. Mess up early and you might not get a chance to answer the harder questions. Early screw ups of a missed couple of easy questions can explain why scores and vary widely between tests.[/quote] I guess I hadn’t realized there was no way to redeem yourself if you screwed up early on. I also thought it was interesting that no teacher had emphasized that in the past — It was a helpful reminder. [/quote]
