Do 7th graders take science MCAP? I wasn’t aware of that.

Just 5th and 8th graders do

No scores here for 4th grade

I took some of the PARCC 7th grade english questions. If they are just reusing the same standards/questions for MCAP then they are extremely hard! I bet most seniors wouldn’t do well in them. No surprise the scores are bad. It is one of the reasons states ran away from common corer.

Has anyone got them yet? Specifically anyone with current 8th graders?

Meh, my kids didn't take it.

They have nothing to do with it. It is a state test.

Why so long? How can it possibly take that long to figure out the scores?

Pearson is an enormous testing company. Is the American College of Healthcare Executives exam the same as the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners exam because they're both delivered by Pearson?

That’s insane. This has no benefit to the kids to wait 8 months for results. Example:
I had my son repeat algebra after 7th grade since I was concerned he missed content during remote learning. Turned out he got a high MCAP algebra score (unlike 95% of his classmates). If I had known earlier I would have let him move on to Geometry!
