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.

The Best Test Ever!
Absolutely loved the on-line CAT test! It was wonderful to not have to wait for the tests to arrive in the mail plus it was graded instantly so the kids could track their progress. We had no technical problems at all and we have an older computer. The kids were able to do their test without any confusion and I didn't need an administrator. This is a keeper for our homeschool routine!! Loved it!!

Wonderful, Easy to use and a lifesaver.
When searching for ways to do testing after homeschooling in a different state I was floored by the cost of some of the other tests. This was recommended by one of those teachers and being a single mom this test was a great alternative and very much appreciated. My daughter is 15 I have home instructed for 5 years and we both found the test a great asset.

Easy to purchase, easy to use!
We have found this to be a wonderful way of testing for our family. We no longer need to go to another location to have our children tested over several days ( that is how it is generally done in our area). Being able to take the test in our home helps the kids relax more, saves us time and also money. The cost of the test is unbeatable! I have several children who need to be tested and the ONLINE CAT test make it convenient. We love not having to wait for the grades on the mail, having them available to us as soon as the kids are done with the test is an encouragement. It prevents them (and mom!) from thinking about it for a few weeks. We highly recommend the CAT test.

Too easy
I felt this test was very easy. My kids (who are average) whizzed through the entire thing. It gave them grade equivalents that are way beyond where they are. The math was on kinder level, in my opinion. I was hoping for something more accurate to get a better idea of where they are.

Easier than paper version
I tried this online achievement test for the first time this year with my 7th grader. He is doing more and more on computers, and we thought it might improve his interest in the achievement test. Achievement tests are not usually enjoyable, but my son actually looked forward to doing the test each day! He found the test to be much less complicated than the paper version. The form and set-up of the questions made the answers easier to locate (and no filling in little circles on an answer sheet!). We never had any glitches or reasons to call CLP. The only "downside" to the test that I could find is that in order to move on to the next question, you have to scroll down to find the "next" button. It would be much better if everything were visible on one screen without having to scroll down. This took a few extra seconds with each question. But other than that, the test was ideal for my son. I will definitely be using all online achievement tests text year for my older children. For my youngest who will be in second grade, I think I'll stick with the paper version for a couple more years until she develops her computer skills.

CAT is AWESOME!
I LOVE the CAT! It is user friendly and not complicated to start/set up. The big positive is that you can take it at your convenience in your own home!

Good & Convenient, Factor in Computer Gliches, etc.
Really good test, but keep in mind that your computer may glich, as ours did, and you'll have to call Christian Libery-who are great, by the way, and simply have section reset to retake or possibly just restart it on your own, if it allows. All in all, a good and convenient option and you can avoid the post office!
