Description:

Virtual Knowledge has released the K-3 version of the Children's IQ and Achievement Test to assess child development including intelligence, math skills, reading comprehension and more. The title is the latest version of the American School Achievement Test (ASAT) and the American School Aptitude Scale (ASAS).

Notes:

The title installed quickly and ran with no problems. The graphics are clear and bright and the spoken instructions are not garbled or choppy. Children do have to listen closely to know what to do next. Note that if you attempt to test a child younger than 5 years of age, the system will score the tests on a 5 year old level. My own 3 year old daughter wanted to "play" and half-way through, I checked her progress - it showed an IQ of 115 and 80 to 90 percentile scores on the subtests.

Features:

An 80-page Parent's Manual, fun edutainment-type games, valid and reliable test scores, even a chart of the child's progress. The company has a demo available of this product - contact/ordering information is below.
