Alex took the second part of the EXCEL test today. He took it in the library, and I was able to see him as he was taking it because I was in an adjacent hallway doing Math Facts. Alex had no idea I was there. He looked very calm and happy. He says that he enjoys taking the EXCEL test, and he appeared to be enjoying himself.
During his lunch break, I was able to speak with him for a moment before he had to get back.
After school, he said that he thinks he did very well today. He took the Language and Reading portions of the test. He was extremely disappointed that they did not administer the Science or Social Studies portions of the test. Apparently, the entire CogAT test is not used. Other than the missing sections, Alex said that the test was very similar to the practice test he took Monday evening.
Sounds like he did great. That is wonderful!
