[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We followed the instruction and the child was admitted.

We then helped a couple of interested classmates get in on appeal.  Two[b] big errors are not prepping for the COGAT[/b] and not answering the parent questions succinctly and to the point. [/quote]

Troll alert. [/quote]

Not really trolling, this is the truth.  [b]Private school kids have limited experience with long multiple choice tests.[/b]  They need extensive practice to do well enough to be in that top 1% nationally / top 10% per assigned school.  Of course, private school kids are not really placed in pool, but generally speaking if the COGAT is high enough to be in pool, and the application is equipped with congruent GBRS and reasonable work samples, they will be admitted.[/quote]

Uh, public school kids also have no experience with long multiple choice tests in 2nd grade.  And the Cogat is not a long multiple choice tests.

Probably best for your DC to stay in private.  Wouldn't want to have to be in the same classes as public school kids.[/quote]
