[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe it's the top 10% of each school. [/quote]

Top 10% based on.... ? (NNAT? CogAT? Other things thrown in for good measure?)[/quote]

Op here. This was my question. Iready included?[/quote]

OP see the quote I posted. Just NNAT and CogAT.

Posters on this forum have claimed that their AARTs said it was a straight average of the CogAT composite score and the NNAT, but FCPS has not confirmed that. Theoretically it could be any calculation that combines the CogAT and NNAT. [b]It could also change from year to year (or even, if you want to be a conspiracy theorist, school to school)[/b].[/quote]

This is not conspiracy or fiction, “in pool” is based on local norms and absolutely changes year to year and by school under the new revised system.

4+ years ago “in pool” was countywide and the magic number was 132+ on NNAT OR CogAT, but that is no longer the case. the scores of the students at your specific elementary school determine the in-pool cutoff, which is top 10% at your school. [/quote]
