Can someone tell me how MAP test results are used in terms of placement? My son's new school just did testing and when I look at the RIT chart, I can't tell what his instructional level would be. Based on his math score, he could be above 95th percentile two grades up, or somewhere above the 90th pct 3 grades up. So where does that mean he should be taught? How do these scores aid placement?
His reading seems to be in a range of 3-5 grades ahead, depending whether I look at the 95th pct & above, or the 90th and above. What would that mean in terms of instructional level?
thanks!
