[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you actually have evidence that these kids you resent getting in do poorly or suffer in AAP? [/quote] +1... from the mother of a kid who didn't seem like a great student, had messy work and often didn't complete assignments on time... but scored high enough to get in first round and his AAP teacher thought he was a "perfect fit" for the program. Sometimes gen. ed. teachers don't see the potential and actual ability that the admission tests and AAP teachers do! We know of other boys who were kind of lack-luster/screw up/ADHD-type of kids who are also doing well in AAP (even though their gen. ed. teachers didn't think too much of them). The girls, on the other hand, seem to be more the prototypical "good students" (from gen. ed), but many have struggled with the AAP math, despite being high-flyers in language arts.[/quote]
