[quote=Anonymous]To 23:33,
Thats why FCPS did not include a composite score with this years cogat.  Parents like yourself are very confused about the scores.  The scores as they stand, percentiles are not comparable.  If the NNAT was scored like the cogat was, your childs percentile would have been 75 percentile with a score of 111 instead of 119.  Now the differentiation between the two scores is 32 points of percentile.   There are a lot of smart kids in fairfax county.  I would hope the teachers of FC would say something if they felt any child had some kind of disability.  Unless you see something in your childs work that concerns you, i would not panic.
If I were you at this point, I would buy the online mercer practice test for this fairfax cogat and go over the questions with your child.  You could then determine if a retest is necessary and you could estimate how much better or worse the new score might come back with a full retest. Thats the easiest short term solution.
