[quote=Anonymous]The application and test and teacher/school recommendations are all you do. I don't think you can really "do" anything else -- ideally if it's the right program for your child, he or she will get in based on those things. Of course, there are not enough spots for every kid who would benefit, which stinks! But there's not much that can be done about that right now .... You could speak to your child's teachers, let them know you are applying, and make the case why -- you want them to write good recommendations. But I think (I don't know for a fact) that the most important thing is the test, with those other factors being used as a secondary data point for kids whose test results don't clearly show eligibility.[/quote]
