[quote=Anonymous]They are looking at numbers. That's all they have. 7,400 5th graders screened for testing. ~4000 tested (based on last year's numbers.) Assigned MCPS percentiles based on SES of school. ~1000 identified as possible candidates by computer program. Then everything is reviewed by real people. First review includes report card, MAP, PARCC. Score is assigned. Second review Cogat is added. Score is modified or kept the same. For the ones recommended there's a full committee review. They look at gender balance, ESOL, FARMS, elementary school, and all that good stuff to try to get a diverse group. Probably those who were under consideration by the committee but didn't make the cut due to some of this effort towards diversity get in the wait pool.[/quote]
