First, I am not an expert in testing but do have some personal insight that you may consider. The CAT is a reasonable test can HELP determine ones abilities. Depending on how the test was administered and if all components of the CAT were offered during testing. Many extenuating circumstances can influence the results � such as test conditions; bad hair day; was your child prepared to take a test on that day/s (i.e., good night sleep, nutrition, informed about the process, etc).

It is upsetting that the school did not inform you about the testing � for me, that raises.
