What exactly is the CogAT® Test?

The CogAT® Test is an assessment administered to children from grade levels K-5, to test their cognitive abilities. The categories that are assessed consist of the following: Verbal Battery, Quantitative Battery, and Non-Verbal Battery.  The test is usually given anywhere from November-February depending on the school/district of your child.  

 

What are the benefits of acing the CogAT® Test?

Believe it or not, the benefits of obtaining a high score on the CogAT® Test actually last all the way up to your child's last year in high school. If your child scores a composite score of 97-99 on the exam, he/she will be eligible to take the California GATE test. If your child scores well on the GATE Test, he/she will be placed in an advanced class in their elementary school, or he/she would have the option to actually transfer to a different school that caters to the needs of children seeking a more advanced education for their grade level. These advanced programs give your child a higher chance of getting into an advanced math program in middle school, which would then lead them to take more advanced courses in high school. Essentially, your children can be ahead of their peers for the next 7+ years of his/her life, just by performing well on these two tests. However, it all starts NOW!
