Free NNAT -2 Test Practice Resources

posted by Karen Quinn, The Testing Mom - September 7th, 2012

There are a multitude of free NNAT-2 test resources available online and more and more are becoming available every day. This is partly because of the increased emphasis being placed on competitive gifted and talented program entry requirements and private school admissions testing policies. Free NNAT-2 test practice resources are also more widely available because of increased interest from parents in all walks of life.

As gifted and talented programs and private school admission entrance exams get evermore challenging, many parents feel their children will be left behind, even when their kids are actually among the best and brightest. There is some truth to the belief that even gifted kids can be hindered by circumstances and experiences. After all, many of the gifted and talented assessment tests utilized throughout the nation have been criticized for favoring children with specific backgrounds, ethnic origins, and other demographic indicators.

The NNAT-2 test has received praise and criticism. Generally, it’s considered a more accurate measure of intelligence in older children regardless of kids’ primary language, race, ethnicity, or socio-economic class. It is also believed by many to be a more difficult and perhaps less accurate assessment of intelligence in younger children, making free NNAT-2 test practice resources even more inviting for parents of younger kids just preparing to take the NNAT-2 for the first time.
