Product Description
Paper California Achievement Test with mailed results. This is a timed test.
This 1970 edition California Achievement Test is for students entering grades 2 through 12. It covers the following subject areas: Reading (vocabulary and comprehension), Mathematics (computation and concepts & problems), and Language (mechanics, usage & structure, and spelling). The test for entering grade 2 also includes Auding.
Scores reported will offer a grade equivalent score, but also percentile and stanine rankings for each of the individual test sections. You will receive your testing materials by mail.
This service includes all the necessary materials and instructions for administering the test. After testing, please return the materials to us for scoring (an envelope is included, but you may use any mailing method you would prefer). After scoring the test, we will then mail the final results and original test sheet to you.
Ordering Instructions:
- Enter the FIRST NAME and LAST NAME of the student to be tested in the spaces provided.
- Select the GRADE ENTERING; not the student's current grade.
- Indicate if you would like to add the RECOMMENDATION SERVICE or COMPOSITE SCORING service to your test (both services are explained below).
- Please enter information only for one student at a time, then select the Add To Cart button.
- If you wish to purchase testing services for additional students, or wish to make other purchases, select the Continue Shopping link after viewing your shopping cart.
It can take roughly 1 week to grade the test and mail the results after receiving your test(s). If ordering the Recommendation Service or Composite Scoring service, please allow up to an additional week for the results and service information to be mailed.
* 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.

Great testing service
This will be my third year using this testing service. The first year it was a little confusing, but I have gotten the hang of it now. I would recommed this testing service to any homeschooling parent to monitor your students progress.

Good testing curriculum, but don't appreciate the evolution slant
These are good basic tests that give a pretty good idea of where the kids are performing at. I don't appreciate the 'zillion' years' evolution slant to some of the reading comprehension questions.

Helpful test for record-keeping
The California Achievement Test provides an excellent standard measurement of academic accomplishments from year to year. Very prompt service from Christian Liberty Academy was appreciated. The price of the test is reasonable. The test comes with nice instructions that make it easy to administer.

Easy to Follow
This is my first year having to administer a state test for my daughter. I haven't given her the test yet (that will be done in February) but I did take it out to look at it and read the instructions. I am excited to to this. Everything is labeled, there are examples so I can make sure my daughter understands the instructions. I definitely plan to order these tests from you in the future.

Best Way to monitor my children's progress
I found the CAT to be a great alternative to assess your children's progress at the end of each school year. It is a great tool for parents to assess their student's progress! Thank you for a great product!

CAT quick and efficient
It was easy to administer this test. I recommend the California Achievement Test for those who home school that want to test their child and measure their progress. I used the CAT paper version, which came in the mail promptly.

Pleased with CAT and CLP
We were pleased with the efficiency and ease in which our son took the California Achievement Test. We received it, and the scores, quickly. The ladies in the testing department are very helpful, professional, and, from my experience, form good customer relationships. We would definitely recommend CLP and the CAT.
