[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with PPs who shot down the rumor but I do know that teacher/school recommendations play a huge role in the HGC process. At our school, the principal is very involved in making recommendations along with the teachers. He told me they go over the list as a group and only recommend a surprisingly small group for admission. I found that weird because we're at one of those schools were like 80% of the kids test as gifted according to the 2nd grade test and there are probably many qualified for the HGC. Is it possible the guidance counselor at your particular school is involved, too, and tends to frown on any kids with behaviorial/emotional issues? [/quote] Really? I know at our school they meet as a group but I always assumed the test was more important. [/quote]
