[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son with 268 in 8th grade non magnet says he has the lowest score in his math class apparently kids share scores with each other. We are new to MCPS this year and he is really upset. He is in the Hon Algebra 2 cohort with 10 other kids. How are people prepping for MAP M? Isn’t it an adaptive test where questions change from person to person? [/quote] Yes, it is an adaptive test. It increasingly becomes harder as you give correct answers. You study by basically doing higher level Math of at least two grades higher or more. A number of MS kids are studying Algebra 2 or Precalc outside of their school day, so they are already far more advanced than their peers. Then they study for the MathCounts, AMC and other Math competitions. So the way to succeed is be very advanced and get outside enrichment and acceleration. [/quote] Those kids sound like perfect candidates for an enriched program like the magnets.[/quote]
