Great study material
We got this as practice material for our daughter to work on at home. Her actual COGAT exam had the exact same problems on it. Was great prep for the exam and includes plenty of problems to give the student enough opportunity to learn the material.
Great practice book.
Bought it for my 3rd grader a week before the cogat testing dates. She went to school and took the tests feeling prepared. She said some question patterns on the actual tests were quite different, but she got the idea from this book and didn’t feel panicked at all.
Worth it!
Ended up being great practice!
Exactly like the test!
When my kiddo finished the two hours of CogAT testing for entrance into the Gifted Program I asked her how it went. She told me it was easy and just like the workbook. I wish I’d ordered it a little sooner than a few days before the test because we didn’t get through the whole thing. We had started with the second grade booklet and then moved to the third grade. This workbook helped familiarize us with the concepts in cognitive testing and helped my child focus on actually solving the problems versus wondering what the heck was going on with these types of questions. She scored in the 99th percentile and was admitted to the gifted program.
Child scored 97th percentile after using book
The book is sturdy without printing errors. There were 2-3 that I could not figure out. The explanation are helpful for the few that exist. The answer key is not as organized as it could be. It is jammed together. There are many examples of pattern matching and math problems. The total time to complete the book must have been 5-6 hours split up over several days. It was useful time spent. The outcome of using this book is understanding the format and learning ways to solve problems by recognizing the type of questions. Essentially, children's should gain confidence by learning how recognize question types and how to solve them when encountered on the test. My daughter was 75th percentile on CogAT in grade 2 (level 8 I believe) the year before. I bought that level of this publisher’s prep book, which arrived only two days before the test that we scheduled on short notice. Two days was insufficient and it would not be enough time to complete this book. So I got this book at least a month before the next year’s assessment. She ran through it all before taking it in school in 3rd grade fall, which I could do because she was new to that school system. She scored 97th percentile overall and the lowest was 96th for one part. So my recommendation is to get the book, and my feedback to the publisher is to organize the answer key better.
nice prep for a weird test
I hate COGAT. I hate that we test our kids to death and that the majority of people don't seem to understand math well enough to recognize the flaws and limitations of these tests as being predictive of an individual's cognitive abilities. That being said, we must all navigate the system we have rather than the one we wish were in place. This was a good book to help kids understand the format of COGAT. If you are not familiar with it, COGAT is intended to measure how well students can think and reason rather than measure mastery of content as typical tests do. As a result, a lot of kids are thrown off by the format and fail to perform their best. Going through this workbook helps kids understand the system so they can do their best.
Excellent Resource
I love this book. I am a tutor helping a student prepare for the CogAT test in the fall. The practice tests in here are amazing. I love that the book lays it out so simply for students, parents, and teachers. I am confident this resource will prepare your child/student for this test.
This is excellent book
This book helps my son very well.
