[quote=Anonymous][quote]PP here- I see. My son doesn't take the MAP. I looked up the scoring and it sounds like the Woodcock Johnson where the questions become progressively more difficult until the student scores below a certain number/percentage. It's not technically an above grade level test (like a 7th grader taking the ACT) but can provide a strong argument for acceleration.[/quote] So, my kid DOES take the MAP and is, apparently, 5 grades ahead in math. Except she's not profoundly gifted. She's just your average bright kid with well-educated parents and tons of enrichment. She also benefits from the MAP being adaptive and self-timed, since she is a deliberative thinker. So she literally goes back multiple days in a row to take it because "testing time" is over but she's still going. This is not a brag. She's not THAT gifted. Which is why I'm seriously side-eyeing OP. It isn't jealousy or pettiness - it is that I know MAP isn't illustrative of much. [/quote]
