[quote=Anonymous]PP: The only way to do a completely objective process would be to base it 100% on test scores. However, that may not be legal because of students with disabilities, etc. For example, my DD has anxiety issues and sometimes gets flustered on tests. That happened on both the NNAT and the CogAT. It is documented. However, she had a 15 GBRS. Other people have hearing issues, or ADD, etc. The problem is a group administered test in the first and second grade probably will have a huge variance -- the same kid taking the same type test could have huge difference in scores. The idea of the GBRS is that the teachers and schools should know what to look for. How the child approaches the problem is as important as the answer at this age. Creativity is hard to measure, but critical for the AAP. [/quote]
