In our CogAT class, students will get familiar with the format, question types and content of the CogAT questions and use different techniques to answer the questions.
CogAT Overview
"The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is one of several tests used in the United States to help teachers or other school staff make student placement decisions for gifted education programs, and is accepted for admission to Intertel, a high IQ society for those who score at or above the 99th percentile on a test of intelligence.[2][3][4]"
The CogAT measures three different cognitive abilities:
• The verbal section measures a child’s ability to remember and transform sequences of English words, to understand them and to make inferences and judgments about them.
• The quantitative section measures a child’s understanding of basic quantitative concepts and relationships.
• The non-verbal section measures reasoning using pictures and geometric shapes. This section reduces the impact of language on the student’s score.
The composite score is a total score for all three batteries
