[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I just wish they were upfront about it. Instead of this ‘your kid scored in the 99th percentile on the COUNTY ADMINISTERED test and doesn’t qualify for an advanced program because the teacher heard them make fart jokes instead of solving Pythagorean equations in a second grade classroom.’[/quote] My kid was the one solving Pythagorean equations in 2nd grade. He still got a low GBRS, because the teacher didn't understand what he was doing. People here are trying too hard to make sense of a process that is kind of random. I had a mysterious rejection for my oldest kid and met with the AART. The AART flat out said that every single year, a handful of kids from that school get rejected with strong packets that highly endorse them for AAP and another handful mysteriously get in with nothing whatsoever in the packet to suggest that they belong in AAP. So, at least 10% of the AAP decisions flat out make no sense, even to very experienced AARTs.[/quote]
