Hi all, I am hoping to receive some advice on our very unfortunate situation.
My DD have received extremely low score in her NW test, the score that is way below her ability and although it sounds silly, but simply impossible to receive with the knowledge my DD has, unless some sort of error has occurred.
She was very confident on the day of test that she did well, she had finished all the questions in time with plenty of time to spare, she did look over her work and checked her answers before submitting.
She prepared for this test both with tutor and at home, did hundreds and hundreds of similar tests and at this point, after such number of tests and years of practice, you definitely know what your DD is capable off.
I would not be raising this issue if her score would have been few marks below the cut-off or at least similar, but this is over 30 points below cut off score for NW!? That is absolutely impossible!
DD is one of top performing pupils in an outstanding school, always achieved very high scores in all her practice tests, mock exams. in her recent Bexley selective test she received over 240 in both Verbal and Non-Verbal sections and now she is over 30 points below cut off score for NW!? How is that possible?
It feels that this score is someone's else's score and either was sent to us in error, or some sort of blunt error have occurred in marking system...
I would be really grateful for the following answers:
1. Has someone been in a similar situation and can advise on general procedure to get the score reviewed?
2. How NW tests are being marked? Is it computer or by hand?
I truly believe something went wrong and I need to find out what and when, to be able to escape this misery surrounding our family
All your comments would be greatly appreciated.
