Cause he got cogAT scores 129, 131, 131
But his Composite(VQN) is 135 and Age stanine is 9 and Age percentile Rank is 99%
If we referral to AAP how much he has a chance to be an eligible??
Thanks!

My son's NNT was 126
And he was born in end of June that is why his age composite and percentile is high.. I think..

well there you have it.

O/T but i think this is the only case i've seen on here where NNAT is lower than all CogAt scores.

All of DC's friends and their younger sibs (small sample of 6 kids) got significantly lower scores on the NNAT in first grade compared with their CogAt or FxAt in 2nd grade (with one exception).
I would think that the opposite of what PP says is true as the kids take one test and then have a whole year to work on bringing up their scores on the second one. (Prepping is the norm amongst some communities - it is the way to ensure one's child has access to the opportunities FCPS offers them - eg AAP.)

My son had 127 on NNAT, 136 on Cogat, no prep. 16 GRBS He is now in the 4th grade AAP and gets straight 4's. The teacher says he is #1 in class and has nothing to suggest at conferences as he is excelling at everything. Yes, Im a proud mama- he is my first child and I have 3 more who I have no idea if they are AAP- my first was reading at 2, my 4th is barely talking at two. LOL! After a while you mellow out on these things but we are so relieved this one seems on autopilot.

Anyway, we had lower nnat and not amazing but ok cogat but in the end my child is thriving and rocking it.

Really?? Teacher tells you he is #1 in the class, no suggestions at conference. She needs to be fired! As a fcps teacher, I would be appalled if a teacher said that to me at a conference. I would also never let a kids go on autopilot. I hope this is a troll or a joke!

Definitely parent refer! Your child is consistently high and if there is a good GBRS has a good chance of getting in. Don't let the high scores on this forum crusade you, there are people who get in with 118 as the high score. You have nothing to lose and you might regret not referring.

Particularly if your a crazed AAP person who drinks the local kool aid and spends too much time on those forums.

one of mine was in AAP, two were close but not in pool.

I let it go. they learned, made good friends, enjoyed their lives and are both A students.

I am also surprised that a teacher would refer to one child in a class as "#1." In addition to being unprofessional, telling a parent that one child is "#1" intrudes on the privacy of the other children in the class.

There is that oft overused word "thriving" in AAP.

Did you ask for the GRBS score even after they got in ? How did you get the GRBS score ?

Not the OP, but the AART at DC's school makes copies of the files available once they've been sent to the central screening committee. We knew the GBRS before we knew whether or not DC had gotten into AAP. I was curious to see the file as soon as I could.

I think this is the poster case fro parent referral. I understand the bureaucrats don't automatically look at the overall but at the 99th percentile he's a great candidate. If he gets a good teacher recommendation (GBRS) he should get in and do well.

These days if a child is breathing they should do fine in AAP!
