Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Difference between MAP scores and regular tests

I am wondering how does the MAP test score differ from the scores of the other tests given to kids in schools.
If a child score is 99 percentile say in Math in MAP testing then does it mean that when they are assessed weekly or biweekly in school, should they be scoring 100% since the MAP score is so high.
How does the MAP test score and the other tests relate to each other?


Thanks
