Product Description

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.

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. Composite score results are displayed in raw score, percentile, and stanine rank formats. A grade equivalent composite score is not available.
** 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.

First time user
This was the first time testing my daughter. The instructions were very clear and my daughter had no problems taking the test. I was pleasantly surprised to have the results back within a week. We will definitely be ordering the CAT from CLP again next year!

Best we've used!
In the past we have used several different standardized tests, but we prefer this one. We feel that it is the easiest to administer, less expensive, gives timely results, and gives the tests results we expect to see since we already know what our children know.

CAT paper version
The test was easy to administer and the results simple to understand. The only negative was in the language section, reading the punctuation was difficult between an apostrophe and comma.

paper test worked well for us
I appreciated the paper test format, since I was able to schedule the parts of the test in a way that suited our schedule and balanced the subject matters and time allotments over a few days. I was confused about which Grade/Year to choose, because I needed an Achievement test rather than a Placement test to fulfill my state's requirement. Hopefully I chose the right one!
