Understanding CAT4 Test Scoring by age

The Cognitive Abilities Test (CAT4) is a standard assessment used to measure a child’s cognitive abilities, as follows:

• Verbal reasoning CAT4 skills
• CAT4 Non-Verbal reasoning skills
• Quantitative CAT4 skills
• CAT4 Spatial Reasoning skills.

CAT4 age standardisation process explained

Each CAT4 skills section is scored separately, and the results are combined to form a standardized score. The standardisation process ensures that your child’s CAT4 results are compared to a large sample of CAT4 respondents. Crucially, this representative CAT4 sample is of pupils of the same age.

GL Assessment’s CAT4 is not a pass/fail test, but rather a diagnostic tool that helps in understanding a student’s abilities and potential.

Standardised CAT4 Age Scores

All CAT4 reports show your child’s CAT4 results are as Standard Age Scores (SAS), as follows:

• Below Average: 89 or lower
• Average: 90 – 109
• Above Average: 110 – 119
• Well Above Average: 120 or higher
