[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is one of those that got 99th percentile test scores at a high SES school who didn't get into AAP. Her friends at other schools with lower test scores got in. It's infuriating - is this FCPS way of encouraging young families to move to crappier parts of the county? I'm confident my child would have gotten in at a school with different peers.[/quote] Wrong. Files are screened at a central location. Readers are not comparing students from the same school. Each file is read and considered separately from all others. [/quote] The screening committee sits down with a stack of files from EACH school at a time. They are, in fact, comparing students from the same school. [/quote]
