Ah. That's unfortunate.

Another factor in RIT score change over this particular past four years is that the 2015 norms are substantially different from the 2011 norms, with median RIT scores down across the board. There is a corresponding increase in percentile scores for specific RIT scores, but if a school is using RIT cutoffs, instead of percentiles, that might remove children from GT programs, instead of adding them.
