School and College Ability Test (SCAT) which is developed by Educational
Testing Service (the company that administers the SAT) as a talent search
achievement test for grades 2-6. The test given is two-to-three grades
higher than normally given to students this age. The test measures verbal

CTY(Center for Talented Youth); Stanford University EPGY(Education Programs
for Gifted Youth); Northwest University Center for Talent Development

The SCAT is the registered trade mark of ETS. Author of this practice
has not seen any of the tests. But author has the SCAT sample mini test
from Johns Hopkins University CTY. I studied the mini test to be familiar
with the question format and pattern. Then I created many practice questions
for my son to be familiar with the test. My son was 6 years old and
in grade 2 in a private school. I used this practice for him 2 times.
He scored 99% for Math section of SCAT test. That is 99% comparing with
4th grader nationwide. In the following video, I showed my son’s SCAT
scores together with CogAT and NNAT scores. If this youtube video is
not available, please see the following scanned documents: SCAT
result and CogAT/NNAT result.
