What does this really tell? The child can learn what half of the 7th graders are learning? This part of MAP always confuses me.

Has anyone else seen a Q- in COGAT test for their kids even in a high math aptitude kid.

A mean score that falls at the seventh grade level means that a seventh grader scoring at the 50th percentile for grade (an "average seventh grader") would have the same score.

Don't discount your 4th grader's achievement just because it isn't at the 99th percentile...it's above the 50th percentile for 11th graders. The time is near to start high school math courses for her, if this hasn't already been done.
