If your kid got in the APP pool by the NNAT3 score (1 grade), cogat starts from 2 grade.. do you have their score? |
There are different scores for each of the 140 elementary schools. They look at the top 10 percent highest scores. That will vary school to school. |
Look at the discussion of in pool by pyramid. At our school, the scores were not shared but based on what I heard it was 140 for the COGAT, don’t know for NNAT. |
My child was in pool with a NNAT 145 and CogAT VQN 137. |
It doesn’t really matter if your kid is in pool or not…has no bearing on acceptance into AAP |
Except that it means that your child is in the top 10 percent of their 2nd grade class and probably does require the level of differentiation provided by AAP Level VI. Come on. In pool = in. |
In pool did not mean anything unless their classroom performance is in line with high nnat or coget scores.
If the kid is showing behavior in GBRS, the kid will get a good GBRS score and get in AAP. Kids with high score, but not showing these behavior, it will be no for AAP level 4. |
Nope, it's totally unfair that a kid at a high SES school that scores significantly better than the top 10% at another school doesn't get into the program. |
It’s all about the GBRS is what the parents on kids who don’t have the high IQ tell themselves. High SES white kids with in pool ability scores will get easily. They have to be looking for a reason to reject them. |

And this is why they will eventually alter AAP and simply have LLIV at all schools, no centers or need for a committee. |
It would save time and money as well. Not having to pull Teachers for a ton of conferences to build packets. Not having to send Teachers to read the packets. Not needing a specialized staff to plan all this mess. And an advanced program that meets the needs of kids at their specific school. Kind of nice actually. |

Require??? 😂 You’re funny. The level of delusion here is comical. Your kid is bright and will be fine in gen ed. There’s maybe a tiny, tiny fraction of kids who are outliers and require something different. |
NP. Depends on the school. At some schools (Title I for example) there can be huge differences in ability between the top and bottom percentiles that significantly impact the way Gen Ed is taught. |
