    Also, can you please tell me if a child gets less scores,does that mean something when she moves on to higher grades(middle school,high school etc).

    Will these scores be used in future by schools and colleges to get admission or another issues? Please clarify.

    The percentiles can be found in this link appendix b
    http://www.nwea.org/sites/www.nwea.org/files/resources/NWEA_2011_RIT_Scale_Norms.pdf

    You want the scores to be going up and the percentiles to remain constant. When scores stay stagnant or go down it may be because the child isn't learning anything new. It could also be the child had a bad test day.

    MAP tests are used by many districts to determine placement in gifted programs and accelerated classes or grade enrichment.
