[quote=Anonymous]These tests do not offer the best criteria for selection. They need to do away with them to be more inclusive in the approach anyway. [quote=Anonymous]I also requested the packet and received it recently. My child received 1 always, 7 almost always and 3 often on the HOPE ratings and exceptional talent in math, visual arts, reading and social studies. I'm relatively pleased but was of course hoping for higher. It is an interesting look at how the school views your kid, and I would definitely recommend that everyone request the packet. I was hopeful that the HOPE scores would show more comments from the teacher / school committee. It seems like the old GBRS had more of an emphasis on comments and painting a picture of the student, where this form seems rather bland. Test scores are a mixed bag -- very high in verbal but not as high in the other sections, although still good. I am expecting that test scores, although good, will keep my child out on first round and that we will need to appeal with a higher WISC score. Any thoughts on how those HOPE ratings will be viewed? [/quote] Based on others' posts and prior years' GBRS scores, I think your child has a great shot if they have 135+ NNAT and CoGATs.[/quote][/quote]
