Ha! No idea what my math nut first grade boy got--but, he reported that he was asked 9x9.


That's probably because you're an uninvolved parent who trolls anonymous message boards. *golf clap*

Just fyi -- we don't have our kid's score yet, but the K teacher told us (before they took the test) that she thought the MAP-P for Kindergarteners was totally inappropriate because so much of it is just getting them to have facility using the mouse on the computer. She said she watches them sometimes click something other than what they intended to, and that just having to deal with it distracts them from thinking about the question they're answering. So, just saying I wouldn't put much stock in the result for a kid that age.

I've been told that MCPS does not have percentages for MAP-P or MAP-M.

I think this document applies to MAP-P as well:

Go down to page 64. 150 is 70% for K.

You can ask for the the percentile. As a reference, 205 for a first grader is 99%. I am going to guess in the 180's or 190's for K is around a 99%.
