[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s much easier to get 300+ once completed Geometry. There is a small cohort taking algebra in 6th grade and geometry in 7th. ~50% scores 300+ in 8th fall map-m. [/quote] I've heard many of the students from the wealthier schools take Geometry in 7th. This apparently gives them another advantage. :([/quote] This is correct. There is a geometry component to the MAP-M score. My DC is in geometry for 8th grade and got 298 on that component. It helped to raise her grade to 278 for the composite MAP-M score. It’s one of the reasons I don’t think MAP-M is a fair test. More preparation always means a high score. A lot of kids don’t have access to that preparation.[/quote]
