Question for those familiar with CogAT. Are the results valid if students are given unlimited time to finish each section? When my 13 yr old took it 5 yrs ago, the test was timed with the expectation that most of the kids would not finish every section. My 2nd grader recently took the test and I tried to prep him by saying that he might not finish. He came home and told me that they were not timed and everyone was able to take as long as they needed to finish the test. Personally, I am not sure if this is going to be an accurate picture of one's Cognitive Ability. Isn't part of it how fast someone can think on the fly??? How sharp their reasoning skills are???
