You just outlined the rational for above level test!

Mine usually scores 'top 10% or top 5%' on grade level tests, but 67 percentile on 'above level tests' - it gets confusing. At some point you kind of have to forget about the age level tests as meaningless because they don't tell you what you really want to know.

Whine away!
