[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does no guarantee = presume? I dont think I presumed anything. Ill say this...if the fcps scores were the same as national cogat scores, there would be no need to move to FAT. No reason the age adjustment might be equally uncomparable.[/quote] I thought the reason the local test was used was due to the fact that FF County scored high on the national test and the scores were less distributed making it harder to differentiate between scores. By going with a sample of only FF County, they could be plotted across a curve of only County Students and show a more discernible distribution. However, it would be surprising if the the deviation in raw scores between a 7 year old versus an 8 year would show a significantly less variation than between the 7 and 8 year old on the national test. A year of additional knowledge is significant at age 7/8.[/quote]
