On the NWEA k,1st and 2nd grade take the same test. MAP for primary grades.
For my son to skip kinder this fall and go to first grade, he must score over 90% on the spring (end of year) MAP for a K. For reading that means 170 and math 174. Using the same concept for you for skipping first grade, a 186 math is 76% and 189 in reading is 96%. Perhaps they are looking at the math at only 76%. A 90% math score is 192.
ETA.. the concept of MAP testing is if the child answers the question correctly the next question is harder. If they answer incorrectly the next is the same level or easier.
