I heard that if you are in FCPS, they pretty much disregard the NNAt completely b/c it is SO preppable.

With OP's attitude, she should join Mensa. They love nothing better than sitting around talking about a smart they are, but not doing anything with their minds.

I know exactly who you are, even though you changed some minor details, LOL

TROLL

Makes sense for the school board of equity to remove a test that does not disadvantage non-English language learners.

what is the score for the following: over 99 percentile?

I’ve worked in a school where several students scored much higher than that (150ish) but anecdotally May of those students participated in intensive coaching for the test, including one studen who self-reported taking several full practice tests online with the same exact questions. (My guess is a parent paid for the test as “homeschool”
Parent so she could prep child on actual content.

So, relative to other kids in your school, there are very likely a handful of higher scores. That’s not necessarily an indicator that those children are more intelligent or able than your child. They’re just more prepped.

+1,000 OP sounds like an idiot.

My child received a score on her NNAT3 69%, KBIT2 90%, Matrix 5. What does all this mean? She is eligible for TAGS. I need to know what does this means. Does anyone care to collaborate and inform me?

This



I got a letter from Fairfax County Public School with my first grader's NNAT3 scores, with a graph and at the 99th percentile. So what I understand so far is that 99 percentile is based on kids that took the test nationally. So given that this DMV area has highly educated and intelligent parents with similar offspring, I would guess a lot of the students in the FCPS system will also have placed at over, say 95 percentile. So that doesn't help me understand the full picture of how she is in this area.

So with these scores, around where is she at in FCPS? Or in ACPS? Is it kind of being in the top maybe 10-30 percent of your school for your grade (let's say she's at one of those schools where kids test high, with a great school rating of 9). Since she is in FCPS, does that mean that she has a high chance of getting in AAP if her Cogat thing (I frankly only know the term, not what it is) is similarly high?

Raw score was 42 out of 48, scaled score 1665, NCE 99, Stanine 9, Nagliery Ability Index 138. If it matters, she was 6 years and 10 months when tested (she has a Jan birthday so she is on the older side among her classmates).

You clearly understand it despite your title and “aw shucks, doe eyed” attempt to sound like you have no idea what it means or the process.

The consultants who FCPS hired and just issued their report recommend the Naglieri be dropped for AAP consideration in the future. Good score or not, it seems that will no longer be part of the screening process. The SB had a work session on that in the last week and seems they did not disagree.

This made me LOL because this is EXACTLY what my neighbor did a few years back when our 1st graders got their scores back. I was almost embarrassed for her at how transparent she was being. But I think she felt like she had to let us know that her kid wasn't just a pain in the @$$ impulsive jerk. He was a pain in the @$$ impulsive jerk who scored REALLY WELL on his NNAT.

Yes with NNAT3 score of 132+
