[quote=Anonymous]We told our DS that he was getting to go to college and take a puzzle test for an afternoon.  We also told him that it was important that he do his best but mostly it was to have fun.

After the test, he was energized and wanted to do more of the fun tests.  We took him for ice cream.

The results came back a week or so later.  He did just fine.

BTW, for what it is worth, GBRS is total nonsense and causes most of the confusion.  We have three kids:

Kid 1) Seriously smart.  In 2nd grade he could multiply 2 digit numbers in his head, also could calculate exponents and square roots in his head.  Could spell any word.  GBRS 9 - In on appeal after he smoked the WISC.

Kid 2) Solid Above Average.  Not special, just bright.  In, no appeal GBRS 9.

Kid 3) Averagely Average, but very sweet.  No need for AAP, didn't test in, teacher and AART all but begged us to parent refer.  We did, he got in with a 16 GBRS.  Huh???

The first 2 are happy in AAP.  The 3rd is happy in base school![/quote]
