Seems like the county gives the highest score to GBRS. Spoke to the teacher and asked what is the line between a FO and CO so that we get it right next time, teacher says DC is a bright kid in class and does not recollect why she gave 4 FO, is she being coy? [b] The kid is heartbroken and I feel helpless. [/b]It's an early lesson to her that life is not fair.

Feel helpless because retaking COGAT may not even help, there is no clear direction on how GBRS is accessed, and seems very subjective as per the AART.

Kids creds

NNAT- 132  (98 percentile)
COGAT- 132 (139 in math, did badly in verbal) 98th percentile overall
WISC - 140 (99.5 percentile)- GMU counselor said very nice things about DC in an 1:1 assessment
GBRS- 4 FO

This is the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in a while here. I’m truly embarrassed for you, OP. One of two things is true: Either you’re making this up to be melodramatic or you really set your kid up by involving them in this process and making a 7 year old think this process was somehow an indicator of their worth. Either way, it’s ridiculous. [/quote]
