[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP is prestigious. It's on probably on par with gaining entry to UVA, William and Mary, or UMD (out of state). It's a PC way of saying your kid is smart. It's also about socialization. Who do you want your kid to spend 5 years of their lives with every day for most of the year? [/quote] I certainly hope that second sentence is sarcasm!! It made me laugh. [/quote] Why? It's true[/quote] Getting into FCPS AAP LIV at age 7 is not the same as getting into UVA or W&M. The latter is (more typically) based on real academic achievement and effort. Further, I’d love to see the overlap of LIV admits and those that got into UVA. I bet it would be a let down for a lot of LIV parents. If you’re just suggesting it’s similar in terms of percentage admitted, that’s a silly comparison and I refuse to engage further. [/quote]
