* Please note that the California Achievement Test has a 1 year expiration date.
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.
** 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 and may delay the arrival of your test scores.
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.

Outdated
The test that I received was from 1970. If I knew this beforehand, I would have ordered a different test. I found it a bit outdated.

easy; user friendly
Read all the directions through before administering, and you should have no problems! I am so thankful to be able to have my homeschooled child take this CAT test; for the requirements from the state I live in.. And for my own piece of mind.

CAT TEST
I've used the CAT test for years. I believe it is challenging, but not scary for my children. Although I will most likely stay with the CAT test, I will ONLY order from Christian Liberty as they have very kind and patient people who take my order!!

California Achievement Test
After our first year of homeschooling our two kids, ages 6 and 8, we purchased this test to see what the kids had learned and where we have gaps. The level 1 test for my child that just completed first grade was easy to understand, but required the proctor to be very hands on for reading many of the items. The level 3 test is designed for kids entering 4th, 5th, and 6th and is more hands-off for the proctor. It is also clear and easy to understand. My child had the most difficulty with the short amount of time allowed for each section. It will be interesting to see what the scores look like when we get them back.

I like the cat test because I can administer it myself.

CAT paper testing
It is very easy to administer this test and have Christian Liberty grade and send me back the results. My only complaint is that the CAT test is the same every year once you reach a certain grade level. It would be nice if they updated it.

Easy & Quick Testing Service
I have used these tests for a number of years now. While I don't have to report testing scores in my state, I do use these tests to assess how my children are doing each year, and to have good records if needed in the future. They are very easy to administer, and the scores always come back faster than I expect. Christian Liberty Press has been a blessing to our family!

CAT test review
I haven't had a chance to view the products--it is not quite time to test my daughter yet...but I used the CAT last year and was pleased with it and the quick turn around time for the results.
