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. Composite score results are displayed in raw score, percentile, and stanine rank formats. A grade equivalent composite score is not available.
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 a curriculum recommendation service to provide guidance in this area. This service provides a subject-by-subject listing of recommended curriculum materials (from those offered through Christian Liberty) based solely on the CAT scores.
The recommendation service 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 Christian Liberty Homeschools (CLH) 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 originally taken, the test cost will not be deducted from your student's tuition fee.

Easy to Administer CAT Standardized Test
The CAT is a wonderful and easy to administer test. I have used the online version for two years and both years have gone flawlessly. CLP has wonderful customer service in case you have made a mistake when administering a portion of the test. The immediate results are super helpful. My son is profoundly gifted and the scores from the CAT are accepted from all the CTY programs at major universities. I home school our son and this test also covers my state's requirements for standardized testing.

California Achievement test-online
We were very pleased that there was an online version of this test. We needed the results right away, and they were sent to us within an hour after completing it. Also, there was no time limit for breaks between the sections, which really helped since I don't have any help with the younger children while the tester was testing. Some sections last less than 10 minutes, but two are almost a half hour. If you are away from the test for a while it idles and you have to sign in again, but everything you've done is saved for you. We had only one technical issue that gobbled up valuable time. One section uses sound bytes or the tester to hear a word and then choose the correct spelling. If we clicked on the arrow to hear the word, nothing happened-we had to click all over near the arrow to find the hidden spot to click. I don't know if it would have worked differently with an actual mouse instead of the one on the touch pad. Another feature that would have been helpful would be to break down the results in individual sections to see specifically what areas were weakest. Overall, though, we were very pleased with the format and how fast we were able to get results.

Excellent Testing Option
This was our first experience with achievement testing. The online CAT was a perfect option for our family and an easy way for us to fulfill testing requirements for our state. The testing instructions were easy to follow. The format was easy to use. The test was nicely divided into reasonable sections, allowing time for a break in between. The results were received very promptly. It would be a positive if one could review the questions and answers in order to determine specific areas of deficiency; however I have not found a way to review this information. Overall, I am very happy with this testing option and would use it again. Thank you for offering this service.

Couldn't Have Been Easier
This was the clearest, easiest way for homeschoolers to test! I am so glad our independent private school suggested it.

No Headaches here!

Wonderful testing option
Students can do each segment of the test as they have time (no need to carve out three hours!), and results are instantaneous. For each child I had an email of their result (available from the website immediately) within 5 minutes of completion. The only downside, true of any of these tests, is students are unable to go back and see specifically what they got wrong. (This drove me crazy as a kid too. *wink*)

Excellent service
Both my girls really lived doing there testing online this year. We usually do the paper test with the church group but tried the online cat this year. We ordered and started the test on the same day. Results are automatic. We loved it.
