At MABIS, we employ a comprehensive assessment approach to monitor student progress. Teachers carefully observe students daily and analyze their work to gauge their learning. To prepare students for future academic endeavors, we also introduce them to standardized testing experiences starting in Elementary.
For Elementary and Middle School students, the MAP assessment is administered annually to provide valuable insights into their development. Secondary students have the opportunity to participate in AP exams, demonstrating their readiness for higher education.
Students also have the option to take the YCT and HSK exams for the Chinese language. They are recognized certifications administered by the Chinese government.
MABIS MAP Assessment Results
Students from Elementary through Middle School participate in the MAP Assessment annually. This US-based, computer-adaptive assessment is taken by over 11 million students worldwide annually. We are thrilled to celebrate our students’ outstanding results.
The average scores are shown based on the MAP RIT Scale for the entire population of test takers are detailed below. MABIS (Red) is compared with peers, including approximately 5 million US students (Blue), EARCOS – East Asia Schools (Green), Thailand schools (Yellow), and Global (Purple) based on the latest available data.
MAP Math
MABIS students have outperformed many of their peers across multiple grade levels.
MAP Math Top Performers
31% of MABIS students scored in the top 20% compared with the US norm group of 5 million peers, 15% of MABIS students scored in the top 10%, and 9% of MABIS students scored in the top 5%.
MAP Reading
MABIS students have outperformed nearly all of their peers across various grade levels for the English Reading Comprehension assessment.
MAP Language Usage
MABIS students have outperformed all peer groups across all grade levels for the Language Usage (English Grammar) assessment.

MABIS Advanced Placement Results
We are proud to announce the results of our Secondary Program’s first AP course. Our grade 10 students achieved the highest score of 5 for their Computer Science Principles Examination, scoring in the Top 11% globally for this examination.
This year, students from Grades 8-11 are enrolled in 5 AP courses: Calculus, Environmental Science, Statistics, Chinese and Psychology.

MABIS Curriculum Benchmarks
Students experience advanced learning outcomes due the unique, experience-based Montessori program.
