A question regarding entrance or "TAKS" tests for schools.

August 16th, 2012
Say a child of ten through fourteen consistently makes the 97th percentile on these tests which are sometimes given mid=year. He is considered gifted. But if another child makes the 50th percentile on his test is that seriously impaired mentally? So the question is really about the second boy. These are national tests so if he is in the 50th percentile is he retarded or average or what word would you use for the second student?
