the general rule of thumb in years past was 220+ on the MAP-M for entry into compacted 4

That is not true! Plenty of kids with lower scores were admitted

Yeah, it depends on the school.

Its probably 85% or maybe 80%

It’s higher at our school. Maybe 80th/85th normed, but not nationally.

5/6 poster here. My child has always scored above the 95th percentile nationally.

Every kid of DCUM parents does.

Criteria for compacted supposedly got much tighter a few years ago because so many kids missed content through
virtual schooling. I think all kids in compacted were at least in the 90th percentile.

MAP M has questions beyond what’s taught in the grade level. So for example a 3rd grader will have questions on reducing fractions, unit rate, angles, and some algebra. By definition only the kids who have outside enrichment are able to score high. Our W feeder school, has many kids who get enrichment outside and of school, rsm, kumon, mathnasium etc but those are not the majority. So it’s hard to believe that majority of the kids in affluent areas are scoring in the high 90’s. Most people on dcum say their kids have 99th percentile, it can’t be true by definition of 99th percentile.
My DC is in CES 5th grade, he has plenty of kids in his math 5/6 now scoring in 220+ which is not 99th percentile. Which means they scored lower in 3rd yet still got inti math 4/5 as 4th graders. So please understand that dcum is not a place where people are honest about their children’s scores.

Mine is in 5/6 now, but when kid was in 3rd we were told this varies by school and that there is not central identification for 4/5.

They seem to change it from year to year and it’s different in different schools. Imagine if there were clearly published criteria across the district! I don’t think the bar is as high as 85th percentile based on the number of kids who ended up on that track at our school. I’d guess 70th percentile.

And at our school, the 4/5 math teacher reserves the right (which she exercises liberally) to our kids back in regular math if she disagrees with their placement. Even as late as Thanksgiving.

Think that depends on the individual home school. I'd think that if the student got at least 85 percentile in MAP-M, and got As in math, that they should qualify, but you might want to check with your child's teacher for your school's criteria.

Anyone know the criteria for math 4/5 in 4th grade qualification? Thanks
