[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^A WISC of 145 is the 99.9th percentile.  AAP serves around 20% of the population.  You’re insane, a troll, or an idiot.  [/quote]

Nope. Just keeping it real. Go ahead and try the appeal.

You all need to realize the AAP program isn't just about the academics. They looking for a certain type of individual to fit the model and be part of their school population.

Doesn't affect me if you OP wants to go ahead to GMU and pay the $400 - 500 for a WISC school.

With the Hope rating for 4R, it's almost a lock of no shot.[/quote]

No.  You're not keeping it real at all.  Keeping it real might be to tell someone with high scores that the WISC won't likely change anything, and that they should instead focus on a letter demonstrating why their kid's needs can't be met in general education, why their kid might not be displaying gifted behaviors in the classroom, and why their kid would thrive in AAP.  If the WISC was already taken, "keeping it real" would be telling the parent that even a high WISC won't stand on its own, and the parent will still need a parent letter and new work samples for the appeal.

It is not at all "keeping it real" to tell someone who has already done the WISC that the score is not good enough to include unless it's 150+.  [/quote]
