From 4 years, the median gains 3.5 cm in 6 months and 7.0 cm in 12. The 12-month gain is 8.8 cm from age 2 and falls to 5.0 cm at 8 years 6 months, its lowest point between ages 4 and 10, so this age sits between the two.

The median here is 61.8% of the median at age 20 (163.3 cm).

The 3rd percentile climbs 6.3 cm over the next year and the 97th climbs 7.9 cm, so the spread between them grows by 1.6 cm.
