Both tests have a ceiling score of 160 (probably lower in the subscores for the KBIT). The 99th percentile starts at 133, and some schools may report even the 160 as 99th (although others will report it with decimals). If for some reason they don't intend to give you the scoring details, I would try at a minimum to get a scaled score number for each of those areas, to see if your child is at 133, 160 or somewhere happily in between. .
Thanks, Dottie - I am really clueless when it comes to all this ! I have an e-mail into his teacher to see if I can find out more. She e-mailed me last night, she was very excited about his scores, and has already spoken to the Principal to make sure he is aware
I read a previous thread of yours where you explained standard deviations - I presume this is what comes into play with the 133+ score ?? Thanks for your help - what would we do without you ??
