[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Got DC cape scores today for 6th grader. Interesting results…kid loves/excels at reading but got a 3 ( 4 points from a 4), loves/excels in math/science where they got 4s. But..what do the results even mean? The breakdown shows that kids did super well in 3/4 categories but bombed the last which leads me to believe that they got bored/rushed through to finish the test. Results state that child did anywhere between 60/80% better than the rest of DC kids but still got 3 and 4s. Curious on others results bc I don’t have any concerns about child academically but can’t help to think there is something off with this entire test. Or maybe it speaks to the need to prep for a test as the school doesn’t do that at all. TIA. [/quote]

I think the test is fine and your analysis is right. My kid is a very good test taker and gets 98th or 97th percentile on both sections compared to the rest of the kids in DC. Sometimes these are fives but once (maybe 3rd grade math?) it was a 4. I think the teachers could have done more. This has been at a Title 1, 90 percent minority school btw.[/quote]
