Ah HA, Dottie! The raw score thing is very helpful. For example:

On the Information subtest, my ds had a scaled score of 16, which is age equivalent >7.2, percentile 98, with a raw score of 30. If there are 34 points possible, and he only missed 4, he probably hit the end of the test without hitting termination point -- so a ceiling for him. And since he was at the older end of the test, it's probably not *that* uncommon -- hence "only" 98 percentile.

And had he gotten the other 4 points, then his scaled score would have been higher than that 16, and his percentile higher than 98, but his age equivalent would have still read >7.2.

Thanks! laugh I really love this board. (Sorry to hijack your thread, Niki -- I'm a glutton for numbers. laugh )
