有个问题诚心想请教板上睿智的家长们：娃目前就读加州一所不卷私校六年级，学校平时没啥作业也没有考试，唯一考的标准化考试好像就只有MAP, 好像是有数学也有reading, 今天收到学校寄来的电邮通知reading结果，并且问我们接下来还要不要再继续参加这个考试给了三个选项，必须在本周五之前回复学校。双职工家庭平时没时间推娃，娃是第一次考，所以我们也不懂这个成绩意味着什么，看到信中第一行说答对了70%，直觉反应好像也不怎么高，不明白为什么学校的信里头提到再考未必会更好，如果接下来考的比这次低会有什么坏处吗？能否请版本上睿智的家长们帮忙看一下，也提供一些建议：到底我们应该在以下三个选项中如何选择才好？ XXX correctly answered 70% of the questions on the Reading (level 6+) MAP test in the fall, with a RIT score of 255. This indicates that she may have reached the upper limit of this test. She may still show some growth, but the scores may start becoming less accurate and could level off or drop slightly due to test limitations. There are a few options to consider for this testing session for XXX： 1) Continue to take the MAP reading test, along with her math subject test. This will provide continuity in the student’s record, but is certainly not necessary. 2) Opt out. For students who find testing stressful, bringing silent reading for the duration of the test is a reasonable choice. In the spring testing session, one more option becomes available which is to take a sample ACT language test in place of the MAP reading test.

是的，我本来第一个直觉反应也是想让她再考，但是看了学校信的内容就开始好奇如果再考的分数更低会有什么坏处吗？还有学校说也可以考A CT language test来代替，不知道该不该这样做？
我也是没看明白。低了又能怎么样呢？你这个分数要拿来做什么呢？你google一下这个年级这个score是怎么样的。我女儿的学校只给了百分比，没有给raw score。
ACT应该更难一些，也许你应该选ACT。
学校的意思不是说考低了会怎么样，而是她已经超过了map测试上限的水平，再考没什么意义就是浪费时间（虽然我觉得平时在学校大把时间都是浪费的，浪费几个小时还值得写封信吗） 考act这个选项就是不清楚act这个考试的历史分数是不是都会保留到时候一起送给申请的大学，可能我想多了
就是啊，反正学校时间也是浪费啊。难不成别人考试，她放假？那还不如也考试呢。没必要搞特殊化。我就觉得得多考试。我女儿今年第一次考，说数学太难，她都快哭了。我感觉多考几回就应该从容了。
