Initially I was debating with my spouse that was our son’s score or just FYI the test index is out of 160 with actual results pending. Then we received the percentile results on paper with 2 gray boxes with 160 and 99 Percentile Rank. Yes we know the maximum scores, now what was our kid’s test result? Then we saw the Raw Score 47 out of a maximum 48 questions answered correctly.

3 kids in the neighborhood all got 160.
How do you know that already?!
by conversation with the neighbors at the busstop
Damn I am glad I don't live in your neighborhood. Why is that bus stop conversation fodder?!?!
maybe because we are of a certain race and deeply confucianist and care about academic performance?
you guys can chill. these kids will be harshly penalized for their race of birth so 160 is like your 110.
I have no idea what you are talking about. My comment was specifically that I wouldn't want to be around people who think it's okay to casually talk about an ability test.
The kids are Indian.

HIGH SES hereWhat are you saying? That higher SES means HIGHER SCORES? Why are you guys talking about this amongst your neighborhood? The scores just got released! Is this normal to chat about test scores like this?
No, its not normal to openly talk about your perfect scores with your neighborhood buds.![]()
We didn't discuss NNAT or CoGAT scores amongst our friends, probably because our school doesn't focus much on LIV, but there has been a lot of conversation around IAAT scores amongst family friends. And we know the kids discuss it because the Teacher sent home an email when the scores were sent home asking us to remind our kids not to discuss their scores.
We discussed grades when I was in school in the 80's. Kids are doing the same thing today. Parents discussed SATs and other scores when I was a kid. It happens. It is pretty normal.

In all of history, those not in the in-crowd have traded "impolite" data to commiserate in their shared repression. This was true for wages of women and minorities, for job interview results of black and brown people, and for Test scores of Asian families who know that they need higher quants to overcome the biased qualitative selection processes.
Its partially an Asian tiger mom thing, but it's also a sharing-among-repressed people thing.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever discussed my kids NNAT or CogAT scores with anyone outside of family and the anonymous posters on DCUM ever.

DP. Not sure why you think snark is the right response. I'm certainly glad we chose a "non-TJ mania" area, unlike yours.
And you're wrong about the NNAT scores.
Because PP chose to indicate a bus stop conversation about kids' test at school is so unbelievably out of the social norm. Look, you are free to choose whom you associate with, but stop judging other adults' social interactions, maybe?

Is the test off this year or something? How do I request a retest?
Ah yes, definitely an issue with the test, not just an inaccurate perception of your student 🤦
I am well aware of my daughter’s ability. In fact I’m probably better aware of how intelligent she really is than anyone else. Her test result is simply wrong.
