Synopsis

The IAS is used all 50 states, Australia, and Canada. Feedback from four years of nationwide use has resulted in a 2nd Edition of this unique, systematic, and objective guide to considering and implementing academic acceleration.

-refined overall based on experience and research
-presented in clearer format to make it easier to use
-clarifies scoring of items
-revises the ability and aptitude tests that are required
-contains updated research on acceleration
