Based on Riverside Publishing's own information, you are right to question these results. Also, Riverside apparently has a specific guide on how teachers/test administrators should check the results of an E profile. The following is on form Cogat Form 6, and is included in the profile information for 7, 8, and ,9 E profiles with a relative weakness:
"When students obtain an E profile, it is important to double-check the integrity of their scores. The section "For Additional Information" (below) directs teachers to parts of the CogAT Interpretive Guide for Teachers and Counselors that explain how to check (1) whether the students attempted most of the test items, (2) whether their score reports contain score warnings, and (3) whether the confidence intervals on their plot of scores (shown on the List of Student Scores and the Profile Narrative Report) are reasonable."
Good luck in getting answers.
