Composite Scoring:
Christian Liberty has added the composite score option in response to some state and local school requirements.** This score is calculated from the raw scores of the individual sections of the California Achievement Test.
Families who request a composite score will receive (in addition to the individual results provided for the seven subject areas) composite score results in raw score, percentile, and stanine rank formats. A grade equivalent composite score is not available.
To include a composite score with your test results, simply check the "Composite Scoring" option.
What is Composite Scoring?
** Christian Liberty does not require a composite score for enrollment into its homeschool academy.
Recommendation Service:
If you are unsure which curriculum materials to choose based on the achievement test scores, Christian Liberty offers two different curriculum recommendation services to provide guidance in this area:
Basic Service – provides a subject-by-subject listing of recommended curriculum materials (from those offered through Christian Liberty) based solely on the CAT scores. Premium Service – currently unavailable |
Both services can take a few business days to complete.
After testing is completed:
If you decide to enroll your student into the Christian Liberty Academy School System (CLASS) within six months after receiving the test results, the cost of the test will be deducted from your student's tuition fee. However, if you enroll your student in a grade level using a different test than the one he or she originally took, the test cost will not be deducted from your student's tuition fee.

Easy to use, results were fast
This was our first year needing to complete standardized testing so we were a little apprehensive. The test was easy to spread out over 3 days and was able to be completed in the comfort of our own home. My child also completed the practice test prior in order to be more familiar with the format of the test. I highly recommend that as well!

Online CAT test
We've used this test for years and if we've ever had trouble with the internet connection we've always had great customer service.

Easy to use
This was our first time using a product like this and it was very easy to navigate. The results came in super fast. I also felt that the results were a fairly good representation of the skill levels of my children. I will use again next year.

CAT review
I found that the CAT was much easier to use than I anticipated, especially for the first time! I like that the results are immediate, there is a good explanation of what each of the scores mean, and my son could take breaks between tests. He did very well navigating the test himself.

Good practice in taking standardized tests
Overall, I was quite satisfied with the CAT Online. We did have an issue during the first section of the test in which an error message ran for all three students taking the test and it took a while for us to get the test going again. The timer ran down the whole time we were getting things going again, so the kids had very little time left to finish the section. However, the customer service is extremely helpful, professional, and polite, and helped us address the problem. I was satisfied with the third and fourth grade level tests we took, though there seemed to be a bigger jump in the difficulty between those two grades than I would have anticipated. This product is easy to use and navigate. We will probably use a newer test in the future, but this was a good introduction to standardized testing for our kids.

Online CAT testing
Given that we need to test to meet state regs this fit the bill. I found that the test is a good reflection of where I see my child at . I do not test prep and we have always scored above the state required percent of 33%. The fact that the results are available almost immediately is a great stress reducer for us. The sale was a nice added bonus for us as well. Even though this year could have been an alternate year we opted to test anyway as it is easier than doing the end of year narrative. Thanks For offering this version as we do not teach to the common core.

Ease of testing
Taking the online test is so much easier and simple. Everything is laid out for us. We also like the idea of getting your scores as soon as the testing was complete. I'm not sure if it was the learning style but my daughter scored lower then the previous years. This doesn't reflect on the test itself possible just the administration mode.

Online CAT Review
This was our first experience of doing the CAT online. It was so easy. No hassle. When my daughter finished, I told her to leave it up so I could figure out how to get her grades. Before she could even get up from the computer, my email dinged, I already had the results!!
