Except my school would use it to ensure they have ideal heterogeneous groupings, frown .

Nono5, gotcha on the level 5...thanks! I don't suppose the software would spit out decimal values between 4 and 5, eh?

The results we got for DD was interesting and kind of split the levels.

She was classified as a level 4 to 5 which I didn't think possible from the book. We even got special information about what a level 4 to 5 kid is and what needs to be considered for schooling. In that break down they clearly make a distinction between level 4 kids versus level 4 to 5 kids. On the breakdown of the areas, DD had categories that were marked as level 5 but her overall was a level 4.5.
