The IDAT is a test with 6 levels that serve to assess the following cohorts:

To set ESL scores, we encourage you to look at our benchmarking table to set the scores that best fit the age and level of the students.

The scoring and grades for admissions are designed to be as simple for schools to understand as possible to eliminate ambiguity of interpretation of results. All scores are a percentage for maths and English.

The character test will be listed as statement of student abilities, preferences and attitudes shown on the multiple.  It is entirely up to schools to interpret and use this information as required and needed.

To set school other scores, take a look at the skills and table below.  The testing for each level is based on common curricula for age and development from Australia and Canada.  However, the skills and levels and quite common across all the continents.  There are some exceptions for math, where many Asian and countries and private school curricula will be far advanced beyond the public school systems used as a base for this test development.  Students coming from these backgrounds may score exceptionally high on math tests.  It is worth noting all testing occurs in English (even for math) and language difficulties may skew the results for other topics, even if knowledge is present.
