DS just took his second grade winter FALL test yesterday (We are in Maryland). He came home and said that he only answered 12 questions in the test. The test covers subjects that he does not grasp, so this is not unexpected.
Still, this got me curious. A MAP test is supposed to include 40 to 50 questions according to NWEA. What happens when during the course of the test, a student cannot complete as many questions, or as in my DS's cases, only about 1/4 of the questions? I assume that this will lead to a greater uncertainty in terms of where he is at but do not completely invalidate the test?
Can anyone shed light on this please? Thanks!
