But we had him privately tested and appealed. I expect both to simply THRIVE in AAP.

Just spit out my orange juice from laughing so hard. Damn you! Love you!

did you have to get a WISC because the GBRS was so subjective?

Did your cat do WISC-IV or WISC-ers?

Thanks for a good laugh! I'm one of the parents anxiously checking the mailbox even though the AAP office told me it would be NEXT week. I'm hoping they'll surprise us and notify early (as if). But I know my child will thrive no matter what the outcome.

I have no doubt the cat is above to well-above average like all the others in AAP.
And you are such a good parent for wanting the best for all in your family!

Thanks for a good laugh. Your DC will get into AAP due to Smart/talented parents genes.

We had to appeal for our goldfish Gertie. I knew something fishy was going on when she didn't get in. She swam through every subject in school with ease and she has such an a-fin-inty for higher level learning that we knew she'd be a good match. The rises to the top of every fishbowl and pond and her fishy shit don't stink.

Check the mail today and tomorrow. Based on last year, I think they should start coming today or tomorrow.

Your cat may be exceptional, but will surely be picked on for his inability to consistently use the litter box. Unless, of course, that was just a cry for help as he obviously needed a more challenging environment.

Based on what information? At least posts have said that they called the AAP office - one was told that letters would be mailed on April 30th and the other said the letters would arrive the first week of May (which is consistent if letters are mailed on April 30th)

Do you have any information contrary to that?

Please. My cat uses the toilet. Naturally, since I am a Tiger Mom. Any cat that cannot ROUTINELY use a litter box is just not up to par. Ugh. I can't believe my little Tony might be in a class with your runts.

Historically letters arrived on Fridays or Saturdays.
So I'm expecting maybe next weekend.

We didn't get a letter in the mail today.

You obviously don't know what your talking about - the only test that matters with felines is the Cog-cat.
