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.

VERY CONVIENANT
This was a very quick way to do the test and had the results back in less than 5 minutes. It had a couple of times the page would not show all the answers but I just called them and they helped me to fix it. Really recommend it!

Timely, efficient, improved!
We used this same test with Christian Liberty in February. This time (May), the report we received post-test was more descriptive, breaking out the scores on sub-disciplines rather than simply give a single score for Math, Reading, and Language. This was VERY helpful and it shows that Christian Liberty is listening to feedback and looking to always improve their products and services. This improvement was very timely for our family's needs. I have moved my rating of this service to 5 stars. The CAT-5 online test is efficient with speedy results. I appreciated that when we needed to re-set a particular test. Support was immediate and helpful, enabling the testing to resume with little to no impact on our schedule. Test anxiety is reduced tremendously in a home-setting and the flexibility built-in to the test design (being able to leave the test environment after a test and come back to finish the other tests later) is perfect for children with special needs. A huge thanks to CLA for making this option possible for all families.

Simple, quick, and cheap!
I have always ordered the CAT and administered it myself to my daughter. This year a friend told us about this online option and it was amazing! My daughter split it up over 2 days, went at her own speed, no grumbling and complaining, no time wasted, and we got results instantly! I will never go back to the old ways!

Glad we used the test
I liked the reassurance that everything was going fine with our son's education that I got from this test. It didn't take too long, and I don't really think he minded doing it. Our son took the test for exiting first graders and I felt that it was a little below his, or most first graders', abilities. However, it was nice to see where he fell in the percentiles and we will use this test again next year.

Painless and quick
We started homeschooling our two children at Christmas so did it for 6 months. Being new at it, this was a fantastic resource and a very easy way of going through the testing process. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because I thought the time allowed on some segments wasn't really adequate and caused more stress than needed. I would prefer it not to be timed at all. For that reason alone I would probably buy the paper one next time. I was really happy with getting the results almost immediately though! That was fantastic. All in all, very happy with our experience with Christian Liberty!

Great Product.
I home school our second grader and this was our first year testing with the CAT test. I found it very user friendly, and it took the intimidation out of the testing process. My son found it easy to use. The scoring was also returned quickly, very straight forward and broken down thoroughly. We will definitely use this product again in the future.
