Adaptive test questions
So out of curiosity, it’s known that questions start with average difficulty question and it gets harder as you get right and easier as you get wrong. For comparison sake, for 57 questions tests, let’s say tier 1 highest difficulty to tier 5 lowest difficulty where 17 questions are tier 5 and the rest are 10 questions for each tier and tier 3 is where test will start at. What if the students get first 40 questions correct leaving only tier 4 and 5, will the student now gets easier questions or are there harder questions still coming in? Are there only exactly 57 questions prepared or do they have extra harder questions for this kind of scenario? If so will it really be fair (no idea just curious about your opinions)?
And those who requested and received their test scores from NYCDOE, could you please share both composite score (total score) and raw score ( x out of 57 maths, y out of 57 ELA). if you don’t mind? I know it’s not something should be taken as reference but really curious to know the actual numbers instead of only educated guesses. I appreciate you all in advance. Thanks.
