He was tested in one day. I think he said he did most of it right before lunch but had to go back to finish up.
I don't really understand the achievement part. If he has only been taught up to a certain level in school, isn't that what he should be expected to know? He does have a habit of rushing through work sometimes. Also, this year it has taken him a little bit of time to get back in the groove with school work. I feel like his achievement scores would have been better last June!
Also, are those good SCAT scores? I don't quite get what they mean - where they put him compared to other kids.
