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.

Online Cat test review
This was our first experience w/ the online testing. Upon receiving the conformation response in my email, a link was given for the CAT test, followed by a username and password. It was fairly easy to navigate upon this point, in which we were then able to access the test. We weren't exactly sure on how to open each section until clicking on several icons revealing certain portions of the test to be taken. Timing starts immediately. Grades were accessible upon completion of the section of testing and I received an email after the completion of the test w/ the final results. It went fairly smoothly and we will probably make this choice again for the next school year.

Not as confusing and scary as we though!
My daughter is use to taking the paper test but due to time, we had to purchase the online version for her. The process was simple and it was not totally confusing as we predicted. We were given our logins and access to everything with in just a day. Our daughter did well but, she said the timer sitting right there was distracting and made testing a little more nerve wrecking for her. She prefers to stick with the paper test but for the future we will not completely rule out testing online as needed and will recommend it to anyone.

Very pleased
My son took the Cat 5 online test - level 4. We were very satisfied with the setup of the test. Very user friendly website. Time allotted for each test was adequate. What we both liked the most was the immediate feedback. As soon as he completed a test, we could go directly to the scores review and see how he did. I would definitely recommend this to others.

Easy to take, hard to understand results
My son has taken this test for two years in a row. He thinks it's an easy test and actually enjoys taking it. My daughter thought it very hard since this is the first year she took it. It's somewhat easy to understand although the instructions for certain parts are confusing. Also, reading the results and understanding them is difficult since I don't know what some of the numbers mean. Overall, it's easy to administer but could use more thorough explanation of results.

Loved it. The test went smoothly. My 8 year old enjoyed taking it. She was able to use the mouse or the touch screen. The results came immediately and were easy to understand.
