This composite score better predicts achievement in mathematics.  \n● The Verbal-Nonverbal Partial Composite (VN) combines the three Verbal subtests and the three Nonverbal subtests. This composite score is a good predictor of achievement in reading and language arts.  \n● The Full Composite (VQN) indicates the overall strength of the student’s cognitive resources for learning.  \nNational Age Scores  \n● Stanine – a type of normalized standard score scale ranging from 1 to 9 with 5 being the mean (average) .  \n● Percentile – indicates the percent of students in the representative age group who obtained lower raw scores on the test.  \nGraphs and Profiles  \n● A bar graph of the student’s scores appears on the score report as a visual representation of the student’s percentile score.  \n● Your student’s individual profile code is listed after the subtitle “Ability Profile”.  \n● Additional information regarding your child’s profile can be found at: [www.cogat.com](www.cogat.com) by keying in the profile code of your student.  \nProfile Codes  \n● The profile code contains a number and a letter, for example, 8E (V-N+) or 7B (V+) .  \n● The number represents the median stanine and the letter indicates the type of score pattern.  \n● The letter score patterns are: A, B, C or E.  \nPercentile and Stanine Descriptions  \n| Description | Percentile | Stanine |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Very High | 96-99 | 9 |\n| Above Average | 89-95 | 8 |\n| Above Average | 77-88 | 7 |\n| Average | 60-76 | 6 |\n| Average | 41-59 | 5 |\n| Average | 24-40 | 4 |\n| Below Average | 12-23 | 3 |\n| Below Average | 5-11 | 2 |\n| Very Low | 1-4 | 1 |\n\nStudent Profiles  \n● A Profile – all subtest scores are roughly the sAme  \n● B Profile – one subtest score is either aBove or Below the other two subtest scores  \n● C Profile – two subtest scores Contrast indicating a relative strength and a relative weakness  \n● E Profile – the difference between the high and low subtest scores is Extreme","cbCaimk9RWhpxRTa","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimk9RWhpxRTa","pdf",270618,17,"English","# Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT)\n## Understanding the Student Profile and its Use for Educational Planning\n## CogAT Scores and Batteries\n## CogAT Composite Scores\n## National Age Scores\n## Graphs and Profiles\n## Profile Codes\n## Percentile and Stanine Descriptions\n## Student Profiles","[{\"question\":\"What is CogAT used for in third grade educational planning?\",\"answer\":\"CogAT benchmark testing supports educational planning for all third-grade students in WCPSS.
