The Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement, 3rd Edition (KTEA-3) is an individually administered measure of academic achievement that may measure skills in up to four areas; reading, mathematics, written language, and oral language. This instrument is normed for individuals ages 4 years, 6 months through 25. Results consist of Standard Scores (mean/average of 100) and Percentile Ranks (mean/average of 50). (Name)’s performance is as follows: Composite Std.
