Any suggestions for my 5th grader ITBS and Cogat testing? Web site or downloads that can help with the test taking. There are a few of those on the internet, and not sure which is best.
Thanks.

The Building Thinking Skills books by the Critical Thinking Company has activities that are similar to the CogAT.

Are you trying to get into a specific program? Does s/he have other test scores that might help or is this really high stakes testing where s/he needs to reach a specific score on these tests only to qualify?

I do believe that the CogAT has a practice test available online. I found this one by googling, but I've never used any of the practice tests, so I can't vouch for which ones are the best.

Having high scores in those tests can help getting into more advanced classes in 6th grade, which is the case in Illinois
