This time 146 more students were found to qualify for G&T programs after Pearson said they weren't. Another 159 saw their raw scores on the test rise.
Last month, an additional 3,000 students were also told they qualify for one of the G&T programs after they had been told they weren't.
These errors come on the heels of the product placements in the 3rd-8th grade ELA tests and last year's Hare and the Pineapple debacle.
As usual, Pearson was sorry:
A spokeswoman for the testing company said the unforgivable blooper won’t happen again.
“There’s no excuse for the scoring errors made on the assessments,” Scott Smith, president of learning assessment, said. “Pearson is taking all necessary measures to ensure this doesn’t happen again.”
