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.

Painless, Easy to Use, Quick Results - Will never go back to the other testing!
I ordered the test for 2 of my children, had the login in the next hour. The site and testing was easy to navigate and painless for my kids! As soon as my children were finished with their testing, the results were available immediately. Complete, easy-to-read test results made understanding the results a breeze. From start to finish this was such a painless process. We were so pleased!

Wonderful testing service
This was easy to use and results came quickly. My son took this on an Apple laptop and the screen was off a little. I am not sure if it was the Apple or not?? It did not affect the test taking, but we needed to move the screen around to see all parts. Overall, it was wonderful and so thankful for this option since we have moved to North Carolina and needed to test.

Pleased
this is our first year of homeschooling and I was mostly looking to see how we had done. The test was basically easy to do. We did experience it freezing once and had to start again on the section we were doing. Other than that, it went well and getting the results right away as really nice.

Quick and Easy
You can't beat the automatic results that you receive with this test.

Frustrating
Unfortunately our experience was not as good as most of the reviews. The issue we had was that the program would freeze up and not let my son finish. He had to refresh the page which forced him to do that section all over again. This happened four times! As if taking a timed test isn't stressful enough, having to retake an entire section four times has to have some effect on his motivation and scores! Upon calling customer service, I was told it works best with Google Chrome, which we were using, and that we should try taking the test on a desktop instead of a laptop, but my son was in the process of retaking the very last section (the fourth time it froze), so there was no sense in making him stop just to move over to the desktop. I gave this a 3-star review because, although we did have issues, it was nice to receive the results immediately. Although, I do have to wonder if the results have been adversely affected by my son having to repeat so many sections.

I'm so thrilled that we were able to do the CAT online this year. It was easy for my kids to use and I love the quick test scores!

Very good, easy to use.
We chose this testing for our 2nd and 5th grader this year and were very pleased. Even though there was an internet connection issue and the test did not get completed, we called in and the test was reset. Very nice people to deal with.

Quick and Easy, but OK test
The purchase and execution of the tests were simple and easy. It was not at all hard to navigate through our account and find what we needed. However, I felt that the format of some of the tests were very difficult. I also found several typos or mistakes in the reading tests.

Painless!
