[quote=Anonymous]The ACT and SAT were brought up in the context of Davidson Young Scholars and a few talent searches. The point of DYS and some of the talent search programs is to identify kids who are so far beyond their peers that their needs can't be met in public school without some significant advocacy. They don't require a strict 145 IQ to get in, nor are they suggesting that high ACT or SAT scores imply a 145+ IQ. They're just using different avenues to identify kids who are well beyond the norm. Kids who take the SAT or ACT in middle school and score above the 95th percentile of college bound seniors would fit this category. Kids who score a 160 NNAT would not. The NNAT is too narrow of a test with too low of a ceiling and too much of an over-representation of high scores to draw conclusions about the educational needs for that child. [/quote]
