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.

Too difficult to navigate on computer
The children's results were not a true reflection of their knowledge of the test material. They had a hard time moving around on the computer screen and kept having to scroll up and down on the same page to get answers to one problem, which caused them to be unable to finish as many problems as they could have on paper.

Excellent
The test was very easy to administer and my son had no problem following the instructions. We especially liked the instant results!

Very pleased
This was my first year homeschooling, and proved to be a very easy test to use. Directions were clear, and loved the immediate test results.

best for older students
I really liked the online version of the California Achievement Test, but my third grader had a little difficulty manuevering from question to question and going back to review, since you can only view one question at a time. Overall, it was a positive experience and I'm sure I will use it again.

Excellent Product
I liked the product and the way the modules and questions were presented. What I disliked about it was that the timer was right there on the screen which made my son a little anxious and nervous and at times was paying more attention to the timer than to the actual questions and got a little anxious thinking that the time left would not be enough. I think the timer should either not be shown or move to the bottom of the screen away from the questions and not right next to them. Service was oustanding. Got the scores very quickly.

Awesome Testing Method
Thank you so much for offering this online testing method. My daughter took a scantron test this spring through another company and did not do very well. I was suspicious that part of the problem was the scantron style of test. I ordered this test in order to see if she did better. She doubled her national percentile rating. I cannot praise this testing method more.

Cat tes review
I am now so glad the Cat test is available online...makes it much easier for children who get nervous with test taking. Having it administered by Christian Liberty, has given parents and their children more options. Thank you

Pleased with this product
There was only one thing that I didn't like. I didn't like that there were two scroll bars for each question. That was a bit confusing and time-wasting for my son. There should only be one scroll bar down the side of the page. Overall, this was a very useful, well-designed and inexpensive test. I will be using this again next year. Thank you!

SIMPLY Does the job
Mandatory testing is not what we want to do. This test is "allowed" in our state to be administered by the parents. So it does the job. I only gave it a "4" because it is a standardized testing BUT everyone at Christian Liberty have been VERY helpful and upon request also put the results of the test in the format that our state requires. We used the paper and the online test. Screen format was not the best but was manageable with scrolling up and down. Instant scoring was nice. Cost is OK.
