Your individual quiz (Cumulative Assessment Test) or CAT will be worth the value of 3 RATS or all of the RATs that were counted for your current Grade from your last CAT. Eventually we will take an EXAM that will include topics on all of the CAT’s and this Exam is called the Diagnostic Observation Grade or DOG.
So assessments are broken down into RATS ( 3- 4 times a week), CAT’s (once every 3 or 4 RATS) and DOGS (once every 2 or 3 CATS).
